Two objects are moving along separate linear paths where each path is described by position, d, and time, t. The variable d is measured in meters, and the variable t is measured in seconds. The equation describing the graph of the position of the first object with respect to time is d = 2.5t + 2.2. The graph of the position of the second object is a parallel line passing through (t = 0, d = 1). What is the equation of the second graph?

I am not sure about this but here goes nothing: d=2.5t+2.2 is very familiar to y=mx+b y=d m=2.5 x=t b=2.2 to find a new quasion we substitute d and t into place wich equals 1=2.5 (0) + b simplification and you get b=1 so your answer is d=2.5t+1
