To determine how far Mike's school is from his home using the graph you've described, we need to find the y-intercept. The y-axis typically represents distance, and the x-axis represents time on a distance vs. time graph.
In this case, as you noted, the curve starts at 100 on the y-axis when x (time) is 0. This means that when Mike starts his drive, he is 100 miles away from home.
So, the distance from Mike's home to his school is **100 miles**.
