Answer:
113.04 km²
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula - Area = πr²
= 3.14 * 6²
= 113.04 km²
The y intercept is 9 and the unit rate is -7
So we plug these numbers in
y= -7x (the unit rate)+ 9 (y intercept)
y= -7x+9
It depends on which variable is eliminated.
If you multiply the second equation by -1 and eliminate the y:
3x - y = 7
-6x + y = -10
-3x = -3 or x = 1
If you multiply the first equation by -2 and eliminate the x:
-6x + 2y = -14
6x - y = 10
y = -4
Let the walker’s speed be W, then the biker’s is W+1.5W=2.5W. Difference in speed is 1.5W. Distance=speed times time, so 12.5=1.5W×1.5=2.25W, and W=12.5/2.25=1250/225=50/9=5.56 mph. The biker’s speed is 2.5W=125/9=13.89 mph to 2 Dec places.
(Note: “1.5 times faster than a walker’s speed” could not reasonably mean the biker’s speed=1.5W because this would give W=16.67 mph, which is very fast for a runner, let alone a walker (!), and a biker’s speed of 25mph.)
