First, you must find the slope, which is -5-4/-1-4, or 1.8, and then put it in point-slope form, or y-4=1.8(x-2), which simplifies to y-4=1.8x-3.6, and so put it in general/standard form, you have to subtract 1.8x from both sides and then add 4 to both sides, and lastly divide both sides of the equation by -1.8 to get x+y=1.889, or x+y=1.6/1.8. This is not copied and pasted.
Answer:
6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
This answer makes sense because i subtracted the 8 inches from the total 60 then i used the number i got in the result (52)then i divided 52 by 8 wich are the rest of the steps. getting 6.5
5n-4 = 6 gives the equation for 5 times #Nathan rode less 4 miles which solves to n = 2
Nathan rode 2 miles. (5*2)-4 = 6 10-4=6 so 2 miles is right
