A pilot was scheduled to depart at 4:00 pm, but due to air traffic, her departure has been delayed by 15 minutes. Air traffic control approved a new flight plan that will allow her to arrive two times faster than she calculated in her original flight plan. Let x represent the time, in minutes, of her original flight. Create an equation that can be used to predict the number of minutes after 4:00 pm she will arrive at her destination.

A. y = 2x + 15
B. y = 1/2x + 15
C. y= 1/2x - 15
D. y= 2x - 15

Respuesta :

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

y represents the time she will get there. She will get there in 1/2 the time so 1/2x.   >>  y=1/2x

BUT she was delayed for 15 minutes before she departed with her alternate route. So you have to add 15 minutes.  >>  y=1/2x+15

Hope that helps.

P.S. Please consider brainliest (but only if you understand it). I need 2 more to rank up.
