The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

Its the first one because -3(-2)=6, 1(-2)=-2, 2(-2)=4 are all correct
Answer:
See below and attached
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>As per the graph we have:</u>
- Coordinates of JL are J(-7, 4), L(-4, 0)
- Coordinates of MP are M(-10, 8), P(-1, -4)
<u>Slope formula is:</u>
<u>Slope of JL:</u>
- (0 - 4)/(-4-(-7)) = - 4 / 3
<u>Slope of MP:</u>
- (-4 -8)/(-1- (-10)) = -12 / 9 = - 4/3
Y-y1= m(x-x1) point-slope form
y-0= -3(x-5)
solve this point-slope form to slope-intercept form. Use the information to graph the line.
