Look at the graph for car 1. Where does it cross the x axis?

the point (70,0)
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
what this means is that when x = 70, y = 0
x = time
y = distance
when the time is 70 minutes, the distance is 0 (ie you get to the destination)
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
that's what the x intercept means for car 1
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
notice in the table for car 1 how x = 70 and y = 0 pair up (first two rows, last column)
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
look at the graph of car 2. Where does the curve cross the y axis?
you can also look at the table for car 2 and look for the y value when x = 0

yes so this is basically saying that at the beginning time (time t=0 minutes), the distance away from home is 70 km
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
the distance car 2 is away from the destination is 70 km
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
give it a shot and tell me what you think
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
x is involved somehow
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
I think you meant to say \[\Large 0 \le x \le 70\] ???
