The graph above represents the data from Activity 3 in this week's lab describing the position of a moving cart as a function of time. The equation for the best-fit line for this position vs. time graph is y = 3.9609x + 0.1739. What distance would you expect the cart to travel if you let it move for 53 seconds?
