Answer: 3.71 miles (approximately)
Explanation: 1/7 • 26 miles = 3.71428571429
S = p/(q +p -pq)
q +p -pq = p/s
q -pq = p/s - p
q(1-p) = p/s - p
q = (p/s - p) / (1-p)
First, find the slope of the line thru these 2 pts:
5-4
m = --------- = -1/2
2 -4
Use the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b:
5 = (-1/2)(2) + b. Then the y-intercept is 5 + 1, or 6: y = (-1/2)x + 6
Multiplying this entire result (3 terms) by 2 results in 2y = -x + 12, or
x + 2y = 12 (answer)
(Note: this is hard to explain without graphing. You might want to graph both of these lines just to make sure I did this correctly. :))
Y = -4(x) is the y = mx + b where m = slope and b = the y intercept.
So the slope of line A is -4 / 1 and the y intercept is 0. (If it's 0 there is no point in writing it down, so it was left out of the equation.)
The slope of line B with be equal to the slope of line A, so we can fill that in our equation. y = -4 x + ??
We know that y increases as x decreases.
Now we just need to scale 8, -3 down until x = 0.
(8 - 4, -3 + 1) = (4, -2)
(4 - 4, -2 + 1) = (0, -1)
y = -4x -1 is your final answer. Hope that helps! :)
Answer:
12 1/4 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
11/2 = 5.5 cups
5.5 + 3/4=6.25 (which is basically,6 1/4)
6 1/4 + 6 = 12 1/4 cups
