8x+y=300
The elevator in a trade center is moving down from a height of 300 feet. The equation above can be used to model the height of an elevator, y, above the lobby. Where x is the time in seconds. If the ordered pair (x,y) satisfies the equation, what does (37.5,0) mean?
A. An elevator stops at a height of 37.5
B. The elevator is moving down at a constant speed of 37.5 feet/seconds.
C. The elevator moves 37.5 feet down from the lobby.
