halp me plzzzzzzzz

Answer 3

what do you have so far? were you able to get started?

Answer 4

am struggling to do the graph with an equation...aawwnnn

Answer 5

Let's break it down piece by piece.

let's make x = time in minutes and y = distance from home

Also, we'll assume she starts at home so that means y = 0 when x = 0. She starts at the point (0,0)

The first part says that ` She rides on a flat road at a constant rate of 0.4km/minute for 5 minutes`

so what that part means is the line will go through (0,0) and have a slope of 0.4. This line will span from x = 0 to x = 5 to represent the fact that she is traveling this speed for 5 minutes

Answer 6

OK

Answer 7

OK PAPA

Answer 8

The 2 comes from the fact that 5*0.4 = 2

Answer 9

` She then rides up a hill at a rate of 0.3km/minute for 3 minutes.`
what would this look like?

Answer 10

SO basically they have given us the slope and x value, we can find the y value...or distance ok

Answer 11

yes if she traveled 0.4 km/min for 5 min, then she traveled 5*0.4 = 2 km

x = 5
y = 2

giving the point (5,2)
