Y or f(x) = -2x+5
the slope goes with the variable (x) and when the value of x is entered it makes a line, and the y-intercept is next to show where the point is on the y - line
For this case we have the following equation:
d = 0.5 + 5t
We will describe the equation step by step.
0.5: Initial distance Jillian walked
5: speed with which Jillian begins to jog
t: independent variable that indicates the number of hours
y: dependent variable that indicates the distance traveled in miles
Answer:
The variable variable is time and the dependent variable is distance.
