3 < k
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify by undoing addition to both sides, then divide both sides by the coefficient of k.
Answer: brooke had the faster time
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because if you convert 1 hour 45 into minutes it would be stated as 105 minutes and if you do 115 - 105 you are left with 10 which the bigger number is the fastest so it would be brooke the reason I subtracted was to see if they were not similar. Hope this helps :)
Rate of fill-up = 1/44 = 1/44 * 77/77 = 77/3388
Rate of emptying = 1/77 = 1/77 * 44/44 =44/3388
Combined Rate of Fill-up = 77/3388 - 44/3388 = 33/3388 = 3/308
Time for combined fill-up = 308/3 = 102.6667 hours = 102 hours and 40 minutes
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y part of an intercept where x is 0. So the equation for slope (y1-y2)/(x1-x2) with y1 and y2 the y values of 2 points and x1 and x2 those points' x values, so if you would use the points (-2,0) and (0,5) (I used intercepts because they are easier, but you can use any points on the line) you would get (0-5)/(-2-0) and then 5/2 for the slope. plugging in then you get y=5/2*x+5
