Answer:
the graph that goes through the points
(0,3), (-4,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
make y the subject
3x-4y=-12
4y=3x+12
y=(3x+12)/4
now when x=0
y=12/4=3
so coordinates (0,3)
now when y=0
0=(3x+12)/4
by multplying both sides by 4
0=3x+12
0=3 (x+4)
divide both sides by 3
0=x+4
x=-4
so coordinates (-4,0)
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1. Calculate the average speed of train B</u>
<u>2. Build a table</u>
When the two trains meet:
Train Average speed Distance time (distance/average speed)
mph
A 60 x x/60
B 80 240 - x (240 - x) / 80
<u>3. Write the equation</u>
The time, when the two trains meet, is the same for both trains:
<u>4. Calculate the time:</u>
The two trains will meet after 1.7 hours
