Acar enters a turnpike 22 miles north of the town. the car travels north at an average speed of 60 miles per hour. how far is the car from the town after 4 hours? explain how you can use linear function to solve this problem. then, solve the problem

y = 60x + 22

262 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the car enters the turnpike at 22 miles, his initial starting point, or initial value (b) is 22.  You also know the rate at which the car travels is 60 miles per hour, which is the slope (m).  Using the slope-intercept formula of a linear function: y = mx + b, you can plug in your initial value and rate:

y = 60x + 22, where y = the total miles and x = the number of hours traveled

After 4 hours:

y = 60(4) + 22 = 240 + 22 = 262 miles

the graph in the attached figure

step-by-step explanation:

we have

using a graphing tool

the graph in the attached figure

the roots are ( x-intercepts) x=-0.5,x=1,x=3

the y-intercept is the point (0,3)

you have to find the same variables -3n - 5n so this would be -3n +(-5n) which equals -9n
