Engineers are digging a 3200-foot-long tunnel at a constant rate. After 5 months, the engineers still need to dig 1700 feet to finish the project. How much time does it take to complete the tunnel from start to finish? Will the engineers have enough time if the project was started in December 2020 and the deadline to finish the project was in August 2021? Please explain your answer for yes or no.

Hint:
y=mx+b (slope-intercept form)
x=time
y=distance
b=3200
Start & Finish: ??
Total length=3200ft
Left over=1700ft after 5 months of digging
