Question

A curve is plotted on a coordinate plane, representing distance and time.

Mike is driving home from school for Thanksgiving. Shown here is the graph of the distance from Mike’s home to his school as a function of time. How many miles from home is Mike’s school?

(1 point)
The distance from Mike’s home to his school is
miles.

Answer 1

To determine the distance from Mike’s home to his school from the graph, you would look at the point on the curve where time is zero (when he starts driving). The y-coordinate of this point on the curve represents the distance from home to school.

If the graph indicates that at time zero (0 minutes or 0 hours) Mike is 10 miles away from home, then the distance from Mike’s home to his school is:

10 miles.

If you have the graph available and can see the exact value at time zero, please replace "10" with the actual distance displayed on the graph.
