Joshua swims 25 meters in 1 minute. draw a graph of meters swam versus time. find the value of the slope and interpret it in words

Given,

The number of meters covered by Joshua in 1 minute = 25 meters,

So, the number of meters covered by him/her in x minutes, ( say y ) = 25x minutes,

⇒ y = 25x,

Which is the equation of line passes through origin,

If x = 1, y = 25,

If x = 2, y = 50,

So, by joining the points (1, 25) and (2,50) we will get the graph,

∵ Slope of a line y = mx + c is m,

By comparing,

The slope of the above line is 25 that shows the rate of change in meters per minute.

Note : x ≥ 0, because number of minutes can not be negative.

step-by-step explanation:

the true statements are:

r = set of real numbers

n = set of natural numbers, 1,2,

w = n u{0} = {0,1,}
