Answer:
12+4y
Step-by-step explanation:
12+3y+y=12+4y
45 divided by 5 is 9 and 9 times 8 is 72 so the answer is 72.
The m in the equation is the slope and the y-intercept is the b.
y=1x-1
y=mx+b
To find the amount he spent on bags of mulch you must take the cost of the shovel away from the total, giving the equation:
46.16-14.75=3.49x
To covert this to whole numbers, multiply by 100
4616-1475=349x
3141=349x
x=9
Answer:
2 hours, 150 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation between time, speed, and distance can be used to solve this problem. It can work well to consider just the distance between the drivers, and the speed at which that is changing.
<h3>Separation distance</h3>
Jason got a head start of 20 miles, so that is the initial separation between the two drivers.
<h3>Closure speed</h3>
Jason is driving 10 mph faster than Britton, so is closing the initial separation gap at that rate.
<h3>Closure time</h3>
The relevant relation is ...
time = distance/speed
Then the time it takes to reduce the separation distance to zero is ...
closure time = separation distance / closure speed = 20 mi / (10 mi/h)
closure time = 2 h
Britton will catch up to Jason after 2 hours. In that time, Britton will have driven (2 h)(75 mi/h) = 150 miles.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The attached graph shows the distance driven as a function of time from when Britton started. The distances will be equal after 2 hours, meaning the drivers are in the same place, 150 miles from their starting spot.
