Answer:

Option D.

Explanation:

Consider the below image attached with this question.

It is given that yesterday Selma read 75 pages of her book and she reads at a pace of 2 pages per minute today. It means

Initial value = 75

Slope = 2

She has read, y, after x minutes have elapsed.

The slope intercept form of a line is


y=mx+b

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.


y=2x+75

At x=0,


y=2(0)+75=75

At x=11,


y=2(11)+75=97

At x=20.25,


y=2(20.25)+75=115.5

At x=58,


y=2(58)+75=191

Table of values

x y

0 75

11 97

20.25 115.5

58 191

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Yesterday, Selma read 75 pages of her book. If she reads at a pace of 2 pages per-example-1
