Sam is observing the velocity of a car at different times. After two hours, the velocity of the car is 50 km/h. After six hours, the velocity of the car is 54 km/h.

Part A: Write an equation in two variables in the standard form that can be used to describe the velocity of the car at different times. Show your work and define the variables used. (5 points)

Part B: How can you graph the equation obtained in Part A for the first seven hours? (5 points)

let:
x = hours of travel
y = velocity

slope= rise/run slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) 
(x1,y1) = (2,50) (x2,y2) = (6,54) 
sub values back into the equation m = (54-50)/(6-2) m = 1 
POINT SLOPE FORMy-y1 = m(x-x1) y-50= 1(x-2) y = x -2 +50
y = x + 48

B) 

the graph within the first seven hours can be obtained at point B

x = 7

y = 7+48 = 55
B(7,55)
