Answer:

m = 2, b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )

Given

6x - 1 = 3y - 10 ( add 10 to both sides )

6x + 9 = 3y ( divide all terms by 3 )

2x + 3 = y , that is

y = 2x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 2 and y- intercept b = 3

A fireman is heading towards a forest fire and needs to know how far away the fire is. The person in the fire tower can determin

hjlf

Answer: 3.82 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the shown figure, we can imagine the scene as a right triangle, where the tower is located at the right angle, and the fireman and the forest fire located at each of the other two vertices.

So, since we are dealing with a right triangle we can use the Pithagorean Theorem, in order to find the distance from the fireman to the fire $d$ , which is also the hypotenuse.
