Since you have the answers given, just track their walking.
After one hour, one guy has covered 3mi and the other 4mi, which is in total 7, not 14
After 2 hours, one guy has covered 6mi and the other 8mi, which is 14mi

The algebraic way would be:
3x +4x = 14 *x being the hour
7x = 14
x =2

Choose the point slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the points (-3, 2) and (2, 1)
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y-1=-\dfrac{1}{5}(x-2)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (-3, 2) and (2, 1). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{1-2}{2-(-3)}=\dfrac{-1}{5}=-\dfrac{1}{5}

y-1=-\dfrac{1}{5}(x-2)

Please answer and show steps please show steps please show steps 10 points
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

it is C 10

Step-by-step explanation:

 If the positions are distinct, as in executive offices, then P(9, 5). 

P(9, 5) = 9!/(9 - 5)! = 15120 

If the positions are equivalent, such as seats in a legislative body, then C(9, 5). 

C(9, 5) = 9!/[(9 - 5)!(5!)] = 126

Assuming the five positions are unique in their duties and responsibilities (i.e. order matters): position 1 has 9 candidates to choose from, position 2 has 8, position 3 has 7, and so on. Otherwise, if you're talking about 5 distinct but duplicate positions - meaning their responsibilities are the same but 5 people are required to carry them out - you need to divide the previous total number of possibilities by the number of ways those possibilities could have been reordered.
