The graph shows the relationship between the number of hours that Michelle has been driving and the distance that she has left to travel to get to her destination. A graph on a coordinate plane titled Distance Remaining Over Time. The x-axis is labeled time (in hours), numbered 1 to 8, and the y-axis is labeled miles to destination, numbered 50 to 400. A straight line with a negative slope starts at point (0, 350) and ends at point (7, 0). Which statement is true? It took Michelle 6 hours to complete the trip. For each hour that Michelle drove, she traveled an additional 50 miles. In the first 6 hours, Michelle had traveled a total of 50 miles. In the first 3 hours, Michelle had traveled a total of 200 miles.

Answer:

For each hour that Michelle drove, she traveled an additional 50 miles.

Explanation:

The point (0, 350) tells you Michelle's trip is 350 miles long. The point (7, 0) tells you she completed it in 7 hours. The point (6, 50) on the graph tells you she has 50 miles remaining of the original 350 after 6 hours.

True: for each hour Michelle drove, she traveled an additional 50 miles.
