The problem is already in standard form but to get it into slope intercept form you rewrite the equation so it looks like
6y=-5x+7 divide all by 6
y=-5/6x+7/6
slope being -5/6 and b being 7/6
14 beacause your multiplying 7x2 wich is 14
Ok, so here, we have the unit rate of the snail. Now, we need to set up a proportion.
60/1 = 120/x
Now, cross multiply.
60*x = 120*1
60x= 120
Now divide to solve for x.
60x/60 = 120/60
x = 120/60
x= 2
Now our final answer is 2.
Final answer:- The snail will take 2 minutes to crawl 120 feet
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
log_x(y)+log_x(z)=log_x(yz), so logb(x-1) + logb(x+2)=logb((x-1)(x+2)). next subtract logb(8-2x) from both sides to get logb((x-1)(x+2))-logb(8-2x)=0. log_x(y) - log_x(z) = log_x(y/z). so now we have logb((x-1)(x+2)/(8-2x)). now you can put it into exponential form: (x-1)(x+2)/(8-2x)=b^0=1 now just solve for x:
(x-1)(x+2)= 8-2x, x^2 + x -2 = 8-2x, x^2 + 3x -10 = 0, (x+5)(x-2)=0 x=-5, x=2. plug both into the original equation to check which one is correct, since log_x(y) can't have a negative y, x=-5 doesnt work
