Answer:

6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the route length be r.  The distance the cyclist has already covered is then (5/7)r + 40.  This plus 0.75r - 118 must = r, the length of the entire route.

Then:

(5/7)r + 40 + (3/4)r - 118 = r

The LCD of the fractions 5/7 and 3/4 is 28.  We thus have:

(20/28)r + 40 + (21/28)r - 118 = r, or

(41/28)r - 78 = (28/28)r

Combining the r terms, we get 13r = 78, and so r = 78/13 = 6.

The cyclist's bike route is 6 miles long.

If Im not mistaken, the answer should be d because if you add all the degrees up, then you would get 222. And if you subtract 360 from 222 you get 138. I hope this helps. :)

A line has an y-intercept of 4 and a x-intercept of 1. Use this information to write a function in slope intercept form (y = mx
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:  D.  y = -4x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the y-intercept is when x is zero and the x intercept is when y is 0.

and to write in the equation in slope intercept form , you will need the slope and the intercept.

We will use the y and x intercepts to find the slope, by find the difference in their y coordinates and dividing it by the difference in their x coordinates.

y intercept: ( 0,4)  

x intercept: (1,0)

y coordinates difference:  4 - 0 = 4

x coordinates difference:  0 - 1 = - 1  

Slope:  4/-1 =  -4  

Since the slope is -4 and the the y intercept is 4 , the equation will be

 y = -4x + 4

Need help!! You can buy 10 yogurts for $6.50. How much would it cost for nine yogurts!?
ahrayia [7]

To solve this problem, you should find the rate --->  cost per yogurt (cost/yogurt)

$6.50/10 yogurts = $0.65/yogurt

It costs $0.65 per yogurt, so you can multiply 9 by $0.65 to find the total cost of 9 yogurt.

9(0.65) = $5.85
