Answer:
X intercept: x = 4 or in point form (4,0)
Zero for the function at (4, 0)
Y intercept : y = 160 or in point form (0,160)
slope = -40 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept, x-intercept are directly obtained from the graph by noticing the points on the axes where the line crosses them.
The slope is calculated using the points (0, 160) and (4, 0) and the formula for the slope of the segment that joins them:
slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (160 - 0) / (0 - 4) = -160/4 = -40
and the units of the slope are miles over hour (that is miles per hour or mph)
