Carlos likes to bowl. He timed how long it took for his ball to travel the length of a an 18-m lane in the bowling alley. He plotted the final distance and time on a line graph. Carlos drew a line from this point to the origin of the graph. How far down the lane was the ball after it had traveled for 2 s?

6 m

9 m

12 m

18 m

9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

you divide 18 by 2 && yhu get 9

stop cheating

step-by-step explanation:

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.
