Agroup of hikers park there trail head and hike into the forest to a campsite. the next morning they head out on a hike from their campsite walking at a steady rate. the graph shows their distance in miles d from the car on the day of their hike after h hours. how many miles will the campers be from their car after 12 hours?

The campers will be from their car after 12 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

Where "m" is the slope and "b" the y-intercept.

We can pick two points on the line graphed and substitute the coordinates into this formula to find the slope:

Choosing the points (0,4) and (2,10), we get:

We can susbstitute the point (0,4) and the slope into and solve for "b":

Then, the equation of this line is:

Since the distance in miles is represented on the y-axis and the time in hours is represented on the x-axis. we can rewrite the equation as:

Finally, in order to calculate the distance in miles that the campers will be from their car after 12 hours, we need to subsitute into the equation and evaluate. Then we get:
