Answer:

y-intercept = 3

The y-intercept represents the initial fee before any miles are traveled.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point where the graph of the linear equation crosses the y-axis. The y-intercept is also the value of y when x = 0. The coordinates of the y-intercept is (0, b ).

Looking at your graph, it shows that the line crosses the y-axis at (0, 3). Therefore, the y-intercept = 3.

The y-intercept represents the initial fee before any miles are traveled. This means that the taxi ride already has a set amount of $3, regardless of the number of miles traveled. This is added to the total cost of the taxi fare, which is represented by y.

Question 1 Answer:

Aunt 1 and Grandma 1 would fill gift bags.

Mom and Aunt 2 would make centerpieces.

You and Grandma 2 would blow up balloons.

Since you are pairing up to complete the tasks, these pairs each have the shortest times in their respective categories and therefore are the most logical pairing to complete tasks.

Question 2 Answer:

We use algebra and our previous pairings to determine the length of each task.

Gifts Bags --> 6/7 hours

x = time together

$\frac{1}{x}$ = rate of completion
