9. Tyler leaves his house at 7:00 a.m. to go to school. He walks for 20 minutes until he reaches his school, 1 mile
from his house. The function d gives the distance d(t), in miles, of Tyler from his house t minutes after 7:00 a.m.

[Link] what d(5) = 0.25 means in this context.

He is 0.25 miles from home at 7:05 am
On snowy days, Tyler's school has a 2 hour delayed start time (120 minutes). The function s gives Tyler's
distance s(t), in miles, from home t minutes after 7:00 a.m. with a 120 minute delayed start time. If
d(5) = 0. 25, then what is the corresponding point on the function s?
5(125) = 0,25
C. Write an expression for s in terms of d.
s(t) =d (t+12o)
A new function, n, is defined as n(t) = d(t + 60) explain what this means in terms of Tyler's distance

Tyler leaves an how early.

14. A ball is hit in the air. Its height h, in feet, t seconds after it is hit is modeled by the equation
h = 4 + 50t - 32t: Which equation models the height of a ball following the same path but is hit 2 seconds
after the first ball?

a. h = 6 + 50t - 32t
