The table below represents the distance of a car from its destination as a function of time.


Time
(hour)
x
Distance (miles)
y
0
900
1
850
2
800
3
750


Part A: What is the y-intercept of the function and what does this tell you about the car? (4 points)

Part B: Calculate the average rate of change of the function represented by the table between x = 1 to x = 3 and what does the average rate represent? (4 points)

Part C: What would be the domain of this function if the car traveled the same rate until it reached its destination? (2 points)

we are given the table that projects the distance of the car per hour. x is associated to time while y is associated to distance. The equation of the line after plotting in MS Excel is y = 900 - 50x. Hence the y-intercept is equal to 900 while the slope is equal to -50. The domain of the function that is x is all positive numbers.
