You can put this solution on YOUR website!
i believe your graph will look something like this:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"$$$\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the y-axis measures the distance from home in miles.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the x-axis measures the time elapsed in hours.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "traveling at 40 miles per hour, you will reach the park that's 20 miles away in 1/2 hour.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "you start at 0 hours and you reach the park at .5 hours.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "you stay at the park for 2 hours, therefore, you are 20 miles away from home from .5 hours to 2.5 hours.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "you come home at 20 miles per hour, therefore it takes 1 hour to get back home.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "you go from 20 miles away from home at 2.5 hours to 0 miles away from home at 3.5 hours.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
