Ryan starts 10 miles from his house and then runs further away at 6 miles per hour. Write an equation for y, the total distance he is from his house, in x hours.

y = 4x


y = 16x


y = 6x - 10


y = 6x + 10

Answer:

[tex]y=6x+10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where'

m is the slope or unit rate

b is the y-intercept of initial value

In this problem

Let

x ----> the time in hours

y ----> the distance in miles

we have

The speed is the same that the unit rate or slope of the linear equation

so

[tex]m=6\ \frac{miles}{hour}[/tex]

The y-intercept  is

[tex]b=10/ miles[/tex] ----> initial value (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

substitute

[tex]y=6x+10[/tex]
