Question

write a linear equation to model the situation. you have walked 4 miles on a trail. you continue to walk at a rate of 3 miles per hour for h hours.

Answer 1

`y= 4 + 3h`

Explanation:

Step one:

Given data

We are given that the initial distance walked is 4 miles

Also, the rate/ speed with which you are currently walking is 3 miles per hour

let the time taken be hours

and let the total distance be y

Step two:

We want to write an expression for the total distance

The total distance is given as

`y= 4 + 3h`
