After 3 minutes an ant traveled 105 meters and after 7
minutes the ant will have traveled 185 meters.
Assuming a linear equation can be used to model the
change in distance traveled over time beetween 3 and 7
minutes, write this linear model in slope-intercept form:
__________
The significance of the slope in the context of this
situation is:
The ant travels at an average of 20 meters per minute.
The ant travels 45 meters in 20 minutes.
The ant travels at an average of 45 meters per minute.
The ant travels at an average of 20 minutes per meter.
The ant travels at an average of 45 minutes per meter.
Predict the distance that the ant will have traveled after
16 minutes and the number of minutes it will take for the
ant to travel 405 meters
The distance that the ant will have traveled after 16
minutes is ____________meters.
The number of minutes that will pass from the time the ant
begins moving until it has traveled 405 meters is
____________minutes.
After 3 minutes an ant traveled 105 meters and after 7
minutes the ant will have traveled 185 meters.
Assuming a linear equation can be used to model the
change in distance traveled over time beetween 3 and 7
minutes, write this linear model in slope-intercept form:
__________
Let be the distance traveled (in meters) after minutes.
The significance of the slope in the context of this
situation is:
(a)
The ant travels at an average of 20 meters per minute.
(b)
The ant travels 45 meters in 20 minutes. (c)
The ant travels at an average of 45 meters per minute.

(d)
The ant travels at an average of 20 minutes per meter.
(e)
The ant travels at an average of 45 minutes per meter.
Predict the distance that the ant will have traveled after
16 minutes and the number of minutes it will take for the
ant to travel 405 meters
The distance that the ant will have traveled after 16
minutes is ____________meters.
The number of minutes that will pass from the time the
ant begins moving until it has traveled 405 meters is
____________minutes.
Solution
i)(3,105);(7,185)
y-105 = ((185-105)/(7-3))(x-3)
y= 20x+45.
ii)The ant travels at an average of 20 meters per minute
option (a)
iii)after 16 min , distance travelled = 20*16 +45 = 365 m
iv)time taken for the ant to travel 405 m = (405-45)/20 =
18 minutes.
