Question

Jennifer has already driven 160 miles on her trip to her grandparents house for every hour she travels she drives an additional 55 miles which equation represents the relationship between the Total miles driven y,and the number of hours ,x.

Answer 1

y = 55x + 160

Explanation:

The computation of the equation that represents the relationship between the total miles driven y and the number of hours x is shown below:

she starts at 160 miles so it would be y-intercept

So the equation form would be

"b" in y = mx + b

where,

m = 55

and b = 160

Therefore the equation would be

y = 55x + 160

The same is to be considered
