Which graph best describes the following situation? Matt was standing 3 feet from the edge of the pool. He walked away from the pool for 4 seconds. Then he was
12 feet away from the edge of the pool.

Suppose that P(t) describes the position of Matt over time

Let's define the edge of the pool as our zero in the position axis.

At the beginning, Matt was 3 ft away from the edge, so we have:

P(0s) = 3ft

He walked away for 4 seconds, then he was 12 ft away from the edge.

Then at t = 4s his position was:

P(4s) = 12ft.

So we have two points, (0s, 3ft) and (4s, 12ft).

The graph that describes this situation will be the line that connects those two points.

An example is shown below.

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:

111
