Dan is driving from his hometown in California to Colorado for a ski vacation. The equation defines the distance he is from home h hours after noon. Define the meaning of the values in the equation.

y = 62h + 124

A. Dan leaves at noon and is traveling at 62 miles per hour.
B. Dan is 124 miles from home at noon and is traveling at 62 miles per hour.
C. Dan leaves at 1:24 and is traveling at 62 miles per hour.
D. Dan is 62 miles from home at noon and is traveling at 124 miles per hour.

Respuesta :

it’s B. Dan is 124 miles from home at noon and is traveling at 62 miles per hour

Dan is 124 miles from home at noon and is traveling at 62 miles per hour.

How to solve the equation by slope-intercept form?

Given:

y = 62h + 124

An equation has the form

y = mx + b exists the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line.

Where,

m be the rate

b be the y-intercept

By comparison with y = 62h + 124

m = 62

He travels at 70 miles per hour

b = 124

This symbolizes the initial distance as at when he started traveling (12 noon) i.e. At noon, he exists 100 miles away from home.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B. Dan is 124 miles from home at noon and is traveling at 62 miles per hour.
