Question

Marco is driving to the Grand Canyon. His distance from the Grand Canyon decreases 150 mi every 3 h. After 4 h, his distance from the Grand Canyon is 200 mi. Marco's distance from the Grand Canyon in miles, y, is a function of the number of hours he drives, z. The rate of change is -50, what is the initial value? I NEED HELP ASAP.

Answer 1

Answer: 400 miles

Step-by-step explanation: every hour, his distance decreases by 50 miles. After 4 hours, his distance is 200 miles, so 50 miles times 4 hours = 200 miles+the original 200 miles =400 miles.
