The slope of the line whose equation is 3x - 2y = 4 is 2/3 3/2 -2

alexandr1967 [171]

Solve for "y" and you get y=3x/2-2 and the equation for a line is y= mx+b, I mean the slope is the number which companion the "x" in the line equation, so the slope in your problem is 3/2

Jake completed a marathon race in 3 hours and 12 minutes. What would be Jake's running time as a decimal?

VikaD [51]

$\text{Given that Jake completed a marathon race in 3 hours and 12 minutes.}\\
\\
\text{we need to find this time in decimals. so we will convert 12 minutes into hours}\\
\\
\text{We know that there are 60 minutes in 1 hour. }\\
\\
\text{so in 1 minute there will be}=\frac{1}{60 }\text{ hour}$

$\text{hence in 12 minutes we have}=\frac{1}{60}\times 12=\frac{1}{5}=0.2 \text{ hours}\\
\\
\text{hence the Jake's running time is}=3\text{hours + 12 minute}\\
\\
=3\text{ hours}+0.2 \text{ hours}\\
\\
=3.2 \text{ hours}$
