Question

Misty is driving on a scenic road trip, and the graph shows the number of hours traveled compared to the number of miles of the trip
remaining. Use the graph below to the answer
450
MILES REMAINING
50
HOURS TRAVELED
Write an equation of the graph in slope-intercept form.

A) y=-100/3x+450
B) y=100/3x-450
C) y=450x+100/3

Answer 1

Given:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

To find:

The equation of the graph in slope-intercept form.

Solution:

From the graph it is clear that, the line passes through (0,450) and (3,350).

So, the equation of line is

$y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

$y-450=\dfrac{350-450}{3-0}(x-0)$

$y-450=\dfrac{-100}{3}x$

Add 450 on both sides.

$y=-\dfrac{100}{3}x+450$

Therefore, the correct option is A.
