Question

Samuel runs around a hundred meter track he uses the linear equation y equals 200 + 5 x to describe how far he runs after he has already jog two laps which of the following best describes the slope of the linear equation Samuel rinds 5 meters in 2 seconds G Samuel runs 5 m in 1 second H Samuel rinds 7.5 m in 1 second J Samuel runs 10 in 1 second

Answer 1

We have the following equation:

`y=200+5\cdot x`

In this equation x represents the time in seconds and 5 is the rate of change of the equation, therefore Samuel runs 5 meters in 1 second.

Answer is G.
