Let y = 2t + 5 be a linear function representing the distance from home for an ant t minutes after starting out from a location near its home. what does the number 5 represent in this function? a. the ant is moving at 5 feet per minute. b. the ant started out 5 feet from its home. c. the ant is 5 feet from its home after t minutes. d. the ant is moving 5 feet every two minutes.

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

             ..... (1)

Where, y is distance from home for an ant t minutes after starting out from a location near its home.

The slope intercept form of a line is

              .... (2)

Where, m is slope and b is y-intercept or initial value.

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

Here, 5 represent the initial distance of ant from its home.

It means the ant is moving at 2 feet per minute and the ant started out 5 feet from its home.

Therefore option B is correct.

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2
