Kaitlin is driving to Memphis. Suppose that the remaining distance to drive (in miles) is a linear function of her driving time (in minutes). When graphed, the function gives a line with a slope of . See the figure below.
Kaitlin has miles remaining after minutes of driving. How many miles will be remaining after minutes of driving?

I don't have the numeric values from your problem (the slope and the given miles/time are missing). If the slope is s (miles per minute), and Kaitlin has a miles remaining after t minutes, then the linear model is

m(time) = s·time + b, with b = a − s·t.

So after T minutes the remaining miles will be

m(T) = a + s·(T − t).

Give me the slope s and the numbers a, t, and T and I will compute the numeric answer.
