Answer:

Slope = 1/2

y-intercept = 30

Equation : y = 1/2x + 30

D. 150 miles

Explanation:

We can use the two visible points you marked on the graph.

They are (0,30) which is also the y-intercept and (20,40).

Calculate change of y over change of x.

10/20 or 1/2

So the slope is 1/2 and the y-intercept is 30.

Therefore, using y = mx + b form, the equation is y = 1/2x + 30

Then, to find how many miles you drove if the cost was $105, we can plug in 105 for y in the equation.

105 = 1/2x + 30

75 = 1/2x

x = 150
