How concerned are you with how to get the answer?
Because I know the answer is 5 miles per hour
22/5= 4.4 hours
27/5= 5.4 hours

Alright this is how you solve it
Distance over time equals speed
So 22/y=x and 27/y+1=x
Start by solving for time by having these two equations equal each other
22/y=27/y+1
Cross multiply to get
22(y+1)=27y
22y+22=27y
Isolate Y
5y=22
Y=4.4
Now solve for X which is the speed, you can plug in Y to either of the two equations
22/4.4=x
X=5 miles per hour

To solve this, I would square root all of the possible answers and see which ones the arrow falls between. After that I would choose the answer closest to it.

Hope this helps!

The equation of the line that goes through the points ( − 3 , − 9 ) and ( − 6 , − 3 ) can be written in the form y = m x + b
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

y=-2x-15

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b.

m is the slope of the line. To find it we can do \frac{dy}{dx} which is the difference between the y-coordinates divided by the difference between the x-coordinates.

So: \frac{dy}{dx} =\frac{-9-(-3)}{-3-(-6)} =\frac{-6}{3} =-2. Now we have the slope, let's input a set of coordinates into the equation so that we can find the constant b.

-9=-2(-3)+b

b=-15 - Re-arranging to get b

Now re-write the equation as we have the constants.

y=-2x-15

Derek runs 4 laps around the track. If each lap around the track is 0.25 miles long, and he starts and stops in the same locatio
Alex
The answer is B) 0 miles. Because displacement is the shortest distance between starting point and ending point. Since, his starting point and ending point is the same, hence, his displacement is 0 miles.
