You should look to units of measure when setting up problems. when math is done correctly, the units cancel out just as numbers and variables do.

 (miles / hr) * hr = miles

Speed = (miles / hr)

So if the Train W is traveling at x miles/hr
Then Train E is traveling (x+14) miles/hr

The combined distance they two trains travel is 320 miles

2x + 2(x+14) = 320
2x + 2x + 28 = 320
4x + 28 = 320
4x = 292
x = 292/4
x = 73 miles/hr

remember we set x as the speed for Train W
so Train E is going 73 + 14 = 87 miles/hr

Find the rate of change for a linear function that passes through the points (-5, 1) and (1, 10).
Lyrx [107]
The slope of the function for rise/run would be 3/2, this is because;
The function passes through (-5,1) and (1,10). Lets find the change on the y and x axis.
For the x axis;
-5 to 1.
That is a change of positive 6.
-5+6=1
For the y axis;
1 to 10.
That is a change of positive 9.
1+9=10
For the slope we must put rise (change in y axis) over run (change in x axis) to get 3/2 when simplified from 9/6.
For every 2 units of rise in the x axis the y axis rises by 3.
