a.
To draw:
A coordinate plane for each column, and graph the equations in the column on that plane.
a.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
You use a combination of running and walking to complete a race dmiles long. Your running speed is r miles per hour and your walking speed is w miles per hour. Let x be your running time and let y be your walking time (both in hours). Then
The table below shows equations of the form
Calculation:
Upon graphing the equation in 1st column, we will get our required graph as:
Upon graphing the equation in 2ndcolumn, we will get our required graph as:
Upon graphing the equation in 3rdcolumn, we will get our required graph as:
