In the X column put 1, 2, and 3
for the y column, plug in the 1, 2, or 3 into the X
for example, a) y=5x+3
x= 1, 2, 3 y=5(1)+3 = 8
y= 8, 13, 18
Numerator divided by denominator turns it into a fraction
The answer is either going to be the second one or the last one I'm going to go to with the last one if it's not the last one is the second one I hope I'm right if I'm not please let me know or if I am let me know
The smallest value is $0.25 (a quarter) because you can use two quarters and a half dollar. Only one of them can't be a half dollar, but the other two can be.
Let us assume as at when they meet, the time elapsed is x hours.
Fred 3 mi/h
John 2 mi/h
Distance = speed * time
Fred = 3x
John = 2x
Houses are 4miles apart.
So: 3x + 2x = 4 5x = 4
x = 4/5 hour = 0.8 hour or 0.8*60 = 48 minutes
Time elapsed is 0.8 hour or 48 minutes.
