Let distance from Q to R equal x. Then distance from P to Q is 4x. So we have something like this:

P-------------Q-----R
        4x           x

Distance all the way from P to R is 4x + x = 5x, and this must be equal to 120. So set up the equation:

5x=120

Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x:

x= 24

This is the length of QR.

Check to be sure:

P-------------Q-----R
       4(24)  +   24
        96     +   24  = 120

Works!

P                                                                 Q               R

Distance from P to R = 120m

120 ÷ 5 = 24m

The distance from Q to R is 24m.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Kaylee drove her scooter for 2h and Sophia drove her scooter for 3h.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph shown below, we can see that the intersection point is (2,3). When using the graphing method to solve a system of equations, the intersection point is the answer. In this case, x = 2 and y = 3.

Thus, Kaylee drove her scooter for 2h and Sophia drove her scooter for 3h.

Which table of values represents a linear function?
STatiana [176]

Therefore the table values of which represents a linear function are table 2 and table 3

<h3>What is linear equation?</h3>

A linear equation is a first-order (linear) term and a constant in the algebraic form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. A "linear equation of two variables" is what is sometimes referred to here, where y and x are the variables.

Here,

The values shown in table 2 have same constant rate of change of 3 units.

where as,

The values shown in table 3 have same constant rate of change of 5 units.

Therefore the table values of which represents a linear function are table 2 and table 3
