Peter says there are two distances for which he and Maria charge the same amount. To prove Peter is not correct, Maria graphs a line for her delivery charges and a line for Peter’s delivery charges. Each line represents the relationship between the amount (y), in dollars, each person charges for a delivery and the distance (x), in miles, each drives for the delivery. Without showing the graph, explain how Maria’s graph of the two lines proves Peter is not correct.
