Wendy was traveling from Baltimore, MD to Cleveland, OH. For the first 2 3/4 hours of her trip she drove an estimated 63 mph. For the second portion of her trip, which took her 3 1/2 hours, she drove at an estimated rate of 57 mph. Write an expression to model her distance and calculate how far she drove. You may use the distance formula d=r*t (distance = rate * time).
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
