Question

A cheetah runs 75 miles per hour. It has already ran 150

miles. Write a linear equation that shows how far the
cheetah will run in h hours. Let d stand for the total
distance it will run.

Answer 1

s

Explanation:

Answer 2

The linear equation is
`d=75h+150`

Explanation:

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

`y=mx+b`

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept (initial value)

Let

d ----> the total distance

h ----> the time in hours

The equation will be

`d=mh+b`

we have

The speed of the cheetah is the slope of the linear equation

`m=75(mi)/(h)`

The y-intercept (initial value ) is equal to

`b=150\ mi`

substitute

`d=75h+150`
