Read each question carefully and provide the best answer based on the provided linear graphs. Show all your work where applicable.

A car travels at a constant speed. The graph below shows the distance (in miles) the car travels over time (in hours).

1. What does the slope of this graph represent in the context of the problem?

2. What is the car's speed in miles per hour?

3. How far will the car travel in 3.5 hours?

4. A linear graph passes through the points (2, 5) and (4, 11). What is the slope of this line?

1/3

5. Which of the following equations represents a line with a negative slope and a positive y-intercept?

y = 2x + 3

y = -2x - 3

y = -2x + 3

y = 2x - 3

6. The point where a linear graph crosses the y-axis is called the .

7. A horizontal line has a slope of .

8. The of a line describes its steepness and direction.

9. A line with a positive slope rises from left to right.

True

False

10. The equation y = 5 represents a vertical line.

True
