Answer is 6 miles per day
Answer is equation 48 = (x)(5) + 18

Step by step

You can use y intercept equation
y = mx + b

y = 48 total miles
m = rate of miles unknown
x = 5 days
b = starting point of 18 miles already ridden

48 = (x) (5) + 18

48 = 5x + 18

Subtract 18 from both sides to isolate the variable

48 - 18 = 5x + 18 - 18

30 = 5x

Now divide both sides by 5 to solve for x

30/5 = 5/5 x

X = 6 miles per day

Check your work, substitute 6 for x in your equation

48 = (6) (5) + 18
48 = 30 + 18
48 = 48

Problem solved!!

The graph of which function has an axis of symmetry at x=3?​
iragen [17]

Answer:

A graph that has an axis of symmetry at x = 3 would be x^2 -6x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find a graph that has an axis of symmetry at 3, use the equation for the axis of symmetry of a quadratic.

x = -b/2a

In this equation, a is the coefficient of x^2 and b is the coefficient of x. So, if we use 3 as x and we choose a random number to be a (1), we can solve for the b.

3 = -b/2(1)

3 = -b/2

6 = -b

b = -6

Now that we have this, we can put those two numbers as coefficients. The constant at the end can be anything.

You read 4 1/2 pages in 12 minutes. at the same rate, how many pages could you read in an hour?​
nignag [31]

Answer:

22.5 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

First divide the page number by the minutes it takes to read them to find pages per minute-

4.5 / 12 = .375

Then take that number and multiply it by the minutes in an hour-

(.375) (60) = 22.5

22.5 pages in one hour.

How do you do parts? Like what part of 28 is 17? How do you figure out how to find your answer? Someone please explain.
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Divide

Step-by-step explanation:

If you mean as in, what percent of 28 is 17, you can just divide 17/28. It would be 61% or 61/100 as a fraction! (unless you mean something else :c )
