You are going on a trip to the Natural History Museum. At 9:00 AM, you leave for the museum, which is 120 miles away. At 10:15 AM, you are 63 miles away from the museum.
•
Write a linear equation in point-slope form and slope-intercept form that gives the distance, d, ( in miles) from the museum in terms of the time, t (in minutes). Let t represent the number of minutes since 9:00 AM.
•
Graph the function with the vertical axis representing distance from the museum and the horizontal axis representing time.
•
Find the distance you are from the museum after you have traveled 2 hours.
•
About what time will you be at the museum?
