Convert 20 min to hrs: 20/60 = 1/3 hr
Let t = time on the bikethent-(1/3) = time on the bus
Write a dist equation Dist = speed * time:Bike dist + bus dist = 26 mi6t + 30[t-(1/3)] = 26:6t + 30t - 10 = 2636t = 26 + 1036t = 36t = 1 hr on the bike
6 mph for 1 h = 6 mi from house to the bus station
Check solution by finding the distance6(1) + 30(2/3) =6 + 20 = 26 mi

3. For the equation-4y = &amp;r, what is the constant of variation? (1 point)<br> ООО<br> 02
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

3).

- 4y = 8x \\  \frac{y}{x}  =  \frac{8}{ - 4}  \\  \frac{y}{x} =  - 2 \\ y =  - 2x \\ hence \: constant \: is \:  - 2

4).

y \alpha x \\ y = kx \\ where \: k \: is \: the \: constant \: of \: proportionality \\ when \: y = 24 \: and \: x = 8 \\ substitute \: in \: y = kx \\ 24 = 8k \\ k =  \frac{24}{8}  \\ k = 3 \\ value \: of \: constant = 3

If it was by 10, k = 3 by 10

k = 30

5).

general \: equation \: of \: line  \\ y = mx + c \\ but \: m =  \frac{2}{3}  \: and \: c = 9 \\ substitute \: for \: m \: and \: c \: in \: y = mx + c \\ y =  \frac{2}{3} x + 9 \\ alternatively \\ 3y = 2x + 27

Hi what is the answer for this?
saw5 [17]
This is a common factor problem.

Pencils come in a pack of 12
Erasers come in a pack of 10

First, break the number into their prime factors(the idea is that we will break the number down into its smallest multiples, which are prime numbers):
10 = 2 * 5
12 = 2 * 2 *3

So now we take the unique multiples of each number, and when we multiply them together, we will get the smallest number that both 10 and 12 can be divided into(this is what the problem is asking for)
We have (2*2*3) that comes from 12, and the only unique number that comes from the 10 is (5)
So now, we multiply:
2*2*3*5=60
However, this isn't exactly out answer. Now we have to divide our answer by the number of each this in the pack to know how many packs to buy.
60/12=5 packs of pencils
60/10= 6 packs of erasers

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions!!

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points ( 0,-7) and ( 5, -1)
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

y = 5/6x - 5.167

Or

y = 5/6x - 31/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line

y = mx + c

Step 1: find the slope

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Given points

( 0 , -7) ( 5 , -1)

x1 = 0

y1 = -7

x2 = 5

y2 = -1

Insert the values into the equation

m = -1 - (-7) / 5 - 0

m = -1 + 7 / 5

m = 6/5

y = 6/5x + c

Step 2: sub any of the two points given into the equation

y = 5/6x + c

( 5 , -1)

x = 5

y = -1

-1 = 5/6(5) + c

-1 = 5*5/6 + c

-1 = 25/6 + c.

c = -1 - 25/6

LCM = 6

c = -6 - 25 / 6

c = -31/6

c = -5.167

Step 3: sub c into the equation

y = 5/6x + c

y = 5/6x - 31/6

Or

y = 5/6x - 5.167

The equation of the line is

y = 5/6x - 5.167
