Function y = -2x + 5:
slope of -2
y intercept at 5
x intercept at 2 1/2
function y = x
slope of 1
y intercept at 0
x intercept at 0
The expression which relates the total time taken and the time taken for the trip is [15s + 15(s+2)] / s² + 2s and 2.32 hours respectively.
<em>Travel time = distance ÷ speed </em>
<u>Second half of the trip</u> :
- <em>Distance covered = 15 miles</em>
<u>Time taken for second half of trip</u> :
Time taken = 15 / s
<u>First half of the trip</u> :
- <em>Speed = s + 2 mph </em>
<u>Time taken for first half of trip :</u>
Time taken = 15 / (s+2)
<u>Total time taken :</u>
<em>First half + second half</em>
15/(s+2) + 15/s = [15s + 15(s+2)] / s² + 2s
B)
If s = 12
<em>Substitute s = 12 into the expression</em> :
[15(12) + 15(12+2)] / 12² + 2(12)
[180 + 210] / 144 + 24
390 / 168
= 2.32 hours
Therefore, the total time taken is 2.32 hours.

Answer:
Truck D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Below are the rates of travel of 4 shipping trucks.
Truck A: 300 miles in 4 hours Truck B: 240 miles in 3 hours Truck C: 325 miles in 5 hours Truck D: 170 miles in 2 hours.
Speed = distance/time
Speed of Truck A,
![v_A=\dfrac{300}{4}\\\\v_A=75\ mph](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_A%3D%5Cdfrac%7B300%7D%7B4%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cv_A%3D75%5C%20mph)
Speed of Truck B,
![v_B=\dfrac{240}{3}\\\\v_B=80\ mph](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_B%3D%5Cdfrac%7B240%7D%7B3%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cv_B%3D80%5C%20mph)
Speed of Truck C,
![v_C=\dfrac{325}{5}\\\\v_C=65\ mph](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_C%3D%5Cdfrac%7B325%7D%7B5%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cv_C%3D65%5C%20mph)
Speed of Truck D,
![v_D=\dfrac{170}{2}\\\\v_D=85\ mph](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B170%7D%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cv_D%3D85%5C%20mph)
It can be seen that the speed of Truck D is more out of Trucks A,B and C. Hence, Truck D is moving at a faster rate.
I honestly do not know this seems to me to be a trick question
14/7, 14/7=2 and 2/4= 0.5
