Question

ALGEBRA 1, WILL GIVE AWARD, PLEASE HELP.

The table below represents the displacement of a turtle from its nest as a function of time:


Time
(hour)
x
Displacement from nest (miles)
y
0
5
1
27
2
49
3
71
4
93


Part A: What is the y-intercept of the function, and what does this tell you about the turtle? (4 points)

Answer 1

The y intercept is easy to find :) Just look for where x is 0! :D

Answer 2

so the y intercept is 5?

Answer 3

Yep and it tells us that the turtle didn't start at the nest because if he did, the y intercept would have been (0,0)....

Answer 4

ohhh okay. will you help with another question from the same problem??
