Determined to finish her milkshake before Diego, Lin now drinks her 12
ounce milkshake at a rate of 13
an ounce per second. Diego starts with his usual 20
ounce milkshake and drinks at the same rate as before, 23
an ounce per second.

Answer:

I can't create graphs directly, but I can guide you through the process.

Plot Lin's data on the y-axis (vertical) with her time on the x-axis (horizontal). For Diego, do the same. You'll have two lines representing their milkshake consumption rates. Label each line with the respective person's name.

The point where the two lines intersect represents the time at which Lin and Diego will have consumed the same amount of milkshake. The number of solutions corresponds to the number of times the lines intersect. If there's one intersection, they finish drinking at the same time; if there are no intersections, Lin finishes first; if there are multiple intersections, interpret each one based on the context.

Answer:

See below!

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows two intersecting lines:

  • Lin's line: Starts higher (12 ounces) but has a steeper slope (-13/1), meaning she drinks faster.
  • Diego's line: Starts lower (20 ounces) but has a shallower slope (-23/1), meaning he drinks slower.

The lines intersect at a point where both milkshakes are gone (0 ounces). This means there is one solution: both Lin and Diego finish their milkshakes at the same time.

Therefore, the graph tells us that although Lin drinks faster, Diego's bigger head start balances it out, resulting in them finishing simultaneously.
