(3,9)(5,15)
slope = (15 - 9) / (5 - 3) = 6/2 = 3

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
(3,9)...x = 3 and y = 9
sub and find b, the y int
9 = 3(3) + b
9 = 9 + b
9 - 9 = b
0 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3x + 0....can be written as y = 3x.

after 12 months...
y = 3x...x = 12
y = 3(12)
y = 36 inches

Becca and Kimberly are running at a constant speed in a marathon. Becca runs at 4.5 miles per hour. Kimberly’s progress is shown
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Part A: Kimberly

Part B:

Becca = 22.5 miles, Kimberly = 25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Given that Becca runs at a constant speed of 4.5 miles per hour, use the table to find the constant speed that Kimberly runs, and compare who runs faster.

Let x = time

y = distance

k = speed = y/x

Equation for each person can be written as: y = kx

Therefore:

✔️Equation for Becca if k = 4.5

y = 4.5x

✔️Find k (speed) of Kimberly using (2, 10):

Speed (k) = y/x

k = 10/2

k = 5 miles per hour

Equation for Kimberly would be:

y = 5x

Comparing their speed, Kimberly runs faster because she covers more miles per hour than Becca does.

Part B:

For Becca, substitute x = 5 into Becca's equation, y = 4.5x

Thus:

y = 4.5*5 = 22.5 miles

For Kimberly, substitute x = 5 into Kimberly's equation, y = 5x

Thus:

y = 5*5 = 25 miles
