First find equation
center is (h,k) then
(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2
given
(7,0) is center
(x-7)^2+y^2=r^2
also given (2,0)
(2-7)^2+0^2=r^2
(-5)^2=r^2
25=r^2

(x-7)^2+y^2=25 is equation

take derivitive of both sides, implicit differntiaton
2(x-7)+2y dy/dx=0
2(x-7)=-2y dy/dx
(7-x)/y=dy/dx
at (2,0)
(7-2)/0
undefined
that means the line is x=something
(2,0)
the equation is x=2

Answer: slope intercept is y=mx+b form s b= the y intercept and x will just be x and the m is usually a fraction which tells you the slope so what you need to do is mark these points on a line graph draw a line from one to the other and every where it crosses over a point is where you can find the slope and the y intercept giving you the answer

Jose left the White House and drove toward the recycling plant at an average speed of 40 km/h. Rob left some time later driving
Aleks04 [339]
Let x represent Jose's drived distance and y represent Rob's.
So what you need to do is to solve the equation:
40x=48*5
40x=240
x=240/40=6

So Jose drove for 6 hours before Rob caught him.
