a tourist drove his car for the total of 17.5 hours while on a 3-day vacation on the first day he drove 4.5 hours in the second day he drove for 2.5 times as many hours as he drove on the first day how many hours did the tourist drive on the third day of his vacation (HELP PLEASE)​

a tourist drove his car for the total of 17.5 hours while on a 3-day vacation on the first day he drove 4.5 hours in the second day he drove for 2.5 times as many hours as he drove on the first day how many hours did the tourist drive on the third day of his vacation

Step-by-step explanation:

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.
