Answer:
The function is linear; therefore, the slope of the line joining any two points is the same. We take any two points from the table and compute the slope or rise/ run between them— let is take points (-4, -2) and (-2, -10).
Answer:
(5, 7 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 points (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is
[ 0.5(x₁ + x₂ ), 0.5(y₁ + y₂ ) ]
here (x₁, y₁ ) = U(8, 9) and (x₂, y₂ ) = V(2, 5), thus
midpoint = [0.5(8 + 2), 0.5(9 + 5) ] = [0.5(10), 0.5(14) ] = (5, 7 )
plane 1 travels 395 miles in 1 hour
plane 2 travels 422 miles in 1 hour
together, they travel (395+422) 817 miles in 1 hour
to have 2451 miles between then, they'd need to travel

so in 3 hours, they'll be 2451 miles apart
