Question

The graph shows the relationship between the remaining time of a movie and the amount of time since kelly hit play. What is the y-intercept of the graph and what does it represent?

Answer 1

Answer: 1.8

Explanation:

The y intercept is 1.8 because the x is 0 at (0 , 1.8). This means that when the time watched (h) is 0, there is still 1.8 hours left of the movie.

Answer 2

Answer: The intercept is the length of the movie.

Explanation:

The intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis (the y line). At the intercept, the time watched is 0. Meaning we're at the start of the movie. Since the y-axis says "time remaining" it tells us how much of the movie is left for us to watch, the intercept means that we have 1.8 hours of the movie left if we watched 0 hours. meaning that movie's length is 1.8 hours.
