Answer: y - 5 = 0(x - 1)
==================================================
Explanation:
Recall that point slope form in general is written as such
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where,
m is the slope
(x1,y1) is the point the line goes through
The given equation y = 7 can be written as y = 0x+7. So we see that this line has a slope of m = 0
Plug m = 0 along with the given point (x1,y1) = (1,5) into the point slope equation and we get
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 5 = 0(x - 1)
which is the final answer
note: the equation in bold can be rearranged and simplified to get y = 5; however your teacher seems to want the answer in point-slope form, so we leave it as such.
Answer:
x = 4, TU = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that TS bisects TU at Q , then
TQ = QU , substitute values
5x - 9 = 15 - x ( add x to both sides )
6x - 9 = 15 ( add 9 to both sides )
6x = 24 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 4
Thus
TU = 5x - 9 + 15 - x = 4x + 6 = 4(4) + 6 = 16 + 6 = 22
It will take her 6 hours because
3/4=6/8 hours
1/8= 1 hour
