Beatrice graphed the relationship between the

time (in seconds) since she sent a print job to
the printer and the number of pages printed.

Answer 1

Option C. The time in seconds that passed before the printer started printing pages

see the explanation

Explanation:

Let

y ---->the number of pages printed.

x ---> the time (in seconds) since she sent a print job to the printer

we know that

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

In the context of the problem

The x-intercept is the time in seconds that passed before the printer started printing pages (the number of pages printed is equal to zero)
