Please answer the following questions with this format
A:
B:
C:
You are 9 miles away from home. You start biking home at a speed of 6 miles per hour.

a. write an equation that represents your distance from home ( y ) after ( x ) hours
b. find the y-intercept of the graph
c. find the x- intercept of the graph

Answer 1

A: y=9-6x

B: y=6x+9

C: y=9-6x

Explanation:

a) y=9-6x, standard form is ax+by=c so add 6x to both sides

b) from the first, we had it in slope intercept form, mx+b where b is the y-intercept. y=-6x+9

c) The x intercept occurs when y=0 so: y=9-6x

x=1.5
