Question

Alfred is taking a trip. He drove 150 mi and then stopped to refuel. He will drive 60 mph to finish his trip. Let x represent the hours it takes for Alfred to complete the rest of his trip, and let y represent the total distance traveled.

Complete the function equation that relates Alfred’s total distance traveled to his time.

y=____x ____

Answer 1

y = 60x +150

we put our ^0 mph as our Multiplier os x and since Alfred already traveled the 150 miles... that is just added on.
