Two hot air balloons are traveling along the same path away from a town, beginning from different location at the same time. Henry's balloon begins 10 miles from the town and is 24 miles from the town after 2 hours. the distance of Tasha's balloon from the town is represented by the function y = 6x + 15 which balloon was farther from the town at the beginning, and which traveled more quickly?
A. Henry's balloon was farther from the town at the beginning, and it traveled more quickly.
B. Tasha's balloon was farther from the town at the beginning, and it traveled more quickly.
C. Henry's balloon was farther from the town at the beginning, But Tasha's balloons traveled more quickly.
D. Tasha's balloon was farther from the town at the beginning, But Henry's Balloons traveled more quickly.

this answer is !

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.

according to egenuity the answer is
