Question

At what time since leaving their flowers do Bee 1 and Bee 2 have the same distance remaining?

Answer 1

By reading the given graph with the two linear functions, we want to see at which time do the two bees have the same distance remaining. We will see that the correct option is B, 6 minutes.

So, in the graph, we have distance remaining on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis.

We also have two lines, each one describing the distance of each bee as a function of time.

We want to see at which time do the two bees have the same distance remaining, thus, we need to see when the lines intersect (this means that for the same time, the two bees have the same distance remaining).

In the graph, we can see that the intersection happens at the time of 6 minutes, thus the correct option is B; 6 minutes.
