6. The altitude of a car (y) as a driver descends a mountain is shown by the equation y = -250x + 1500, where x is the time in hours of the descent. Interpret the x- and y- intercepts in terms of the problem.
A) The y-intercept shows that the highest point the driver was at was 250 ft., and the x-intercept shows that it took 4 hours to descend the whole mountain.
B) The y-intercept shows that the highest point the driver was at was 1500 ft., and the x-intercept shows that it took 6 hours to descend the whole mountain.
C) The y-intercept shows that the highest point the driver was at was 1750 ft., and the x-intercept shows that it took 6 hours to descend the whole mountain.
D) The y-intercept shows that the highest point the driver was at was 1500 ft., and the x-intercept shows that it took 10 hours to descend the whole mountain.
