The answer is B.
This is because A is incorrect, Zach number of minutes didnt increase by an equal factor every month.
C and D are incorrect, Victoria's methods aren't exponential, but Zach's are.
So that leaves the only reasonable answer which is B.
The answer are below, the work is show step by step.
Answer:
It is Rational.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b
The slope formula is m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
So; 5-(-7) / 0-4= -3
Then you use one of the points to find b; I’ll use 0 and 5 (the first number is x and the second number is y)
5=(-3)(0)+b
5=0+b
5=b
Finally you plug in your two values
Y= -3x+5
Hope this helps :)
So, the first thing you want to find out is how many seconds each person adds to the wait time. Find out how many seconds are in 20 minutes.. 20*60=120. 120/150=0.8 seconds. Each person adds 0.8 seconds to the wait time. Now, multiply that by 240.. 240*0.8=192 seconds. Lastly, find out how many minutes 192 seconds is... 192/60=32 minutes.
I hope I did that right! And if I did, I hope that helped!
