You are fishing and are reeling in a fish. You reel in the fish at a rate of 2.5 feet per second. After 4 seconds, the fish is 10 feet from the end of your fishing rod. Write an equation that represents the distance y (in feet) that the fish is from the end of your fishing rod after x seconds. Then graph the equation.
