Given :
The Ironman endurance race has a 2.4 miles swim.
Javier can swim 0.5 miles in 20 minutes.
To Find :
How much time in hours it takes to complete the race.
Solution :
Speed of Javier :

Let, time taken to cover 2.4 miles is t .
So,

Hence, this is the required solution.
The answer is $44
$0.11 * 400= 44
The max possible profit is $44
The general form of slope-intercept form is y=mx+b
m stands for the slope
b stands for the y intercept
They are giving you m so you can replace m with -4/5 ⇒ y=-4/5x+b
Now you just need to find b. They also give you the point (0,-3). This means that when x is 0, y is equal to -3.
Lets go back to y=-4/5x+b and replace x with 0 and y with -3.
⇒ -3=(-4/5)(0) + b
⇒ -3= 0+b
⇒ -3=b
⇒ b=-3
Now that you have m and b, you can find your final answer in the form y=mx+b
⇒ y=-4/5x + (-3)
⇒ y= -4/5x - 3
