From the beginning we know we are dealing with two different rates. Distance is equal to (Speed X Time). We have two different speeds though. We will call the min speed = x and the max speed = y. With those two ideas in place we can make two equations for both Tony and Rae.
Tony:
2x+3.5y=355
Rae:
2x+3y=320
Now you can solve the equations by subtracting Rae's equation from Tony's
.5y=35 solve for y and you get 70
Now plug that y value back into either equation and you can solve for x. I'll use Rae's distance:
2x+3(70)=320
x=55
6 and 2/3 is larger......................
we have

we know that
this is the equation of a line, to identify which is the graph we will proceed to determine the points of intersection with the coordinate axes
1) <u>Find the y-intercept</u>
the y-intercept is when the value of x is equal to zero
For 
find the value of y


2) <u>Find the x-intercept </u>
the x-intercept is when the value of y is equal to zero
For 
find the value of x


therefore
the answer is the option B ( see the attached figure)
10 x 40 = 400 so the answer is 400 pieces of chalk.
289 square root = 17
17*17=289
Say 17 was length and 17 was width. L*w=289
Also, all sides of the square are the same.
