To answer this question, you need to write a linear equation (because the graph is a visibly straight line) that models this situation, then plug in 12.
The general format for a linear equation is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. The y intercept of a line is where it crosses the y axis; for this line, it crosses the y axis at (0, 0) so the y intercept is 0.
To find the slope, use the slope equation: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). For y1, y2, x1, and x2, just pick any two points on the line. We will use (1, 30) and (2, 60):
(60-30)/(2-1)
30/1
30
The line is y=30x.
Plug in 12 for x:
y=30(12)
y=360
3). 360
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
4 hours and 30 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
270÷60=4.5
Answer: the equation is y=-1/3x
Thanks!
Answer:
uh i really wanna help but maybe dividing would help :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The person's speed is 8 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve we want to convert the
and
proportionally for the number of miles per hour. We know that multiplying a fraction by its reciprocal will equal 1. So let's do that for the value of the hour.
×
Since we multiplied that to the number of hours we must also do that for the number of miles.
