n

OpenStudy (shamil98):

Direct variation i think.

OpenStudy (shamil98):

x1/x2 = y1/y2 or x1/y1 = x2/y2

OpenStudy (ranga):

Don't you have to have at least two pairs of known X AND Y to proceed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeahh that's why it's confusing. I'm trying to figure it out, but I don't know.

OpenStudy (ranga):

Have you reproduced the question here exactly? Have you left out any other info related to this question?

OpenStudy (ranga):

Any diagram, graph, assumptions anywhere else in the page or previous problem to which this question applies?

OpenStudy (ranga):

Yes, it looks like this question applies to that graph. Just plug in x value to calculate y. plug in y values to calculate x.

OpenStudy (ranga):

I will do the first one: y = 1200 + 11x when x = 0, y = 1200 + 11(0) = 1200 feet

OpenStudy (ranga):

yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ranga

OpenStudy (ranga):

y = 1200 + 11x y = 3000 3000 = 1200 + 11x subtract 1200 from both sides 1800 = 11x divide both sides by 11 1800/11 = x x = 163.64 or you can round it to 164 minutes

Thank you very much!
