Points (x,y) for (minutes, distance_remaining)
\n" ); document.write( "(20,70) and (38,53.8)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y-70=%28%2853.8-70%29%2F%2838-20%29%29%28x-20%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify and solve for y in terms of x.
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute 46 for x, for the question and evaluate y.
