Lucian and Blake are taking their bikes out to a nature trail in the woods. They want to be out for no more than 6 hours, and they want to travel at least 40 miles between walking and biking. On average, they walk at a rate of 3 miles/hour and bike at a rate of 12 miles/hour. Which graph represents the number of hours Lucian and Blake can spend either walking or biking to meet their goals?

A. plot the data for the functions f(x) and g(x) on a grid and connect the points. x -2 -1 0 1 2 f(x) 1/9 1/3 1 3 9 x -2 -1 0 1 2 g(x) -4 -2 0 2 4 b. which function could be described as exponential and which as linear? explain. c. if the functions continue with the same pattern, will the function values ever be equal? if so, give estimates for the value of x that will make the function values equals. if not, explain why the function values will never be equal.
