Answer:

y = 2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope we do (Y1 - Y2)/(X1-X2) aka rise over run

So, m = (-4 - 2) / (-3 - 0)

m = 2

Now we have y = 2x +b

Notice one of our points is (0,2)

Since the x value of that point is 0, it is the y intercept.

In the slope intercept form b = y-intercept

Therefore b = 2

So, y = 2x + 2

First, take all the sides you already have, then add them up. (You should get 12) To find the other two sides, do some more simple addition. The 2+3+2 of the the top side add up to six (the bottom side) and sides equal each other so add another three. Total is 12+6+3=21

Answer:

Car a travels (300) miles in 6 hours

Car B travels (200) miles in 5 hours

Car A speed is (50) miles per hour

Car B speed is(40) miles per hour.

Car A traveled (faster than) Car B.

The graph for Car A is(steeper than) the graph for Car B
