Isn’t it supposed to be a minus sign? For it can be like w-2, w-2 ?
Answer:
Firstly you need to put the equation in form of. y =ax+b
Let us do it
We have
2x-2y=18
-2y=18-2x
-y=(18) /2 - (2x)/2
-y =9-x
Mutiply by - to remove it beside y
Y=-9+x
Which is y=x-9
Slope =a=1
Yintercept=b=-9
To solve this problem, let us first assign some variables.
Let us say that:
v1 = velocity of airplane = 180 mph
t1 = time travelled by airplane
v2 = velocity of jet = 330 mph
t2 = time travelled by jet
Since we know that distance is the product of velocity and
time, and that the distance travelled by the two must be equal for the jet to
catch up to the plane, hence:
v1 * t1 = v2 * t2
But we know that:
t1 = t2 + 1
Therefore:
180 (t2 + 1) = 330 t2
180 t2 + 180 = 330 t2
150 t2 = 180
t2 = 1.2 hours
<span>Therefore the jet can catch up to the plane after 1.2
hours it takes off.</span>
$500 was earned over 3 years
so, to find one year
500 ÷ 3 = $166.67
Interest for one year is $166.67
Interest rate for one year is 8%
8% = 166.67
1% = $20.83
100% = $2083.33
Principal amount is $2083.33
