Answer:
y= -2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line is usually written in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.
Given that the slope is -2, m= -2.
subst. m= -2 into the equation:
y= -2x +c
To find the value of c, substitute a coordinate.
When x= -4, y=8,
8= -2(-4) +c
8= 8 +c (expand)
c= 8-8 (-8 on both sides)
c=0 (simplify)
Thus, the equation of the line is y= -2x.
The numbers are 90 and 60. this is because with a ratio 3:2 and multiplying each # in our ratio by 30 gets us the numbers 90:60......
and adding 90 + 60 will get us 150
Answer:
It is in standard form because the exponents are in order from highest to lowest.
I am presuming that the question is who won or by how much did the winner win.
distance equals rate times time, or d = r*t
For the Hare d = 1600 and r = 10
1600 = 10 t
Divide both sides by 10
t = 160
The hare finished in 160 seconds
For the tortoise d = 1600 - 780 = 820 (due to the head start) and r = 5.3
820= 5.3 t
Divide both sides by 5.3
t = 154.72 (rounded to the hundredths place)
The tortoise won by 5. 28 seconds (160-154.72)
