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. 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. distance remaining over time
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Analizar la intersección x - eje
Observamos que la línea del gráfico intersecta el eje x (tiempo) en el valor 6 horas. Esto significa que en 6 horas la distancia restante es 0, es decir, ha completado el viaje.
Step2: Analizar la pendiente
La pendiente del gráfico representa la velocidad. La distancia inicial es de 300 millas y en 6 horas se reduce a 0. La velocidad es $\frac{300 - 0}{6-0}=50$ millas por hora. Esto significa que por cada hora que conduce, viaja 50 millas adicionales.
Step3: Analizar distancias en intervalos de tiempo
En los primeros 6 horas, viaja 300 millas (ya que la distancia inicial era de 300 millas y al final de 6 horas es 0). En los primeros 3 horas, la distancia restante es de 150 millas, entonces ha viajado $300 - 150=150$ millas.
Answer:
It took Michelle 6 hours to complete the trip. ; For each hour that Michelle drove, she traveled an additional 50 miles.
