medal, fan. The table below represents the distance of a car from its destination as a function of time: Time (hours) x Distance (miles) y 0 900 1 850 2 800 3 750 Part A: What is the y-intercept of the function, and what does this tell you about the car? (4 points) Part B: Calculate the average rate of change of the function represented by the table between x = 1 to x = 3, and tell what the average rate represents. (4 points) Part C: What would be the domain of this function if the car traveled the same rate until it reached its destination? (2 points)

can you help meh please? @marihelenh

OpenStudy (marihelenh):

For part A, the y intercept is when y is equal to zero. If you look at your data, you already have the y intercept value.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the car is at 0? right. so that would be for part A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its telling us that the car is at a stop?

OpenStudy (marihelenh):

No, the y intercept is at 900.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the car already travled 900? right.
