If you would like to find the amount of hours and the distance, you can calculate this using the following steps:

y = y
45x + 20 = 35x + 60
45x - 35x = 60 - 20
10x = 40
x = 40 / 10
x = 4 hours

y = 45x + 20 = 45 * 4 + 20 = 200 miles
y = 35x + 60 = 35 * 4 + 60 = 200 miles

The correct result would be 4 hours, 200 miles.

Graph a line with a slope of -5 that contains the point -3,-4
guapka [62]

Answer:

The equation of the line is 5x + y + 19 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line with slope 'm' and given a point (x₁, y₁) passing through it we use the Slope - one - point form which is given by:

                                    y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

The point given is: (-3, -4) and the slope is -5.

We get the equation of the line to be:

y - (-4) = -5(x - (-3))

⇒ y + 4 = -5(x + 3)

⇒ y + 4 = -5x - 15

⇒ 5x + y + 19 = 0. is the required equation of the line.
