Answer:
y + 4 = (-1/6)(x - 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply the point-slope formula here: y - k = m(x - h) becomes
y + 4 = (-1/6)(x - 6)
Add the ratios 3:1 = 4
divide perimeter 128 by 4 = 32
multiply this by each ratio so 3:1 becomes 96length:32width
remember there are two lengths and two widths in the perimeter so divide by 2 to find the length = 48
From the statement of the problem, we know that:
• a train starts at City A and travels 2,158 km to City B,
,
• then it travels 3,793 km from City B to City C.
The distance between City A and City C is equal to the sum of the distance from City A to City B, and the distance from City B to City C. So the distance between City A and City C is 2,158 km + 3,793 km = 5951 km.
Looking at the answer of Clay:
<em>2,158 + 3,793 = (2,158 + 7) + (3,793 + 7) = 2,165 + 3,800 = 5,965</em>
We see that he added 7 km to each of the distances, that's the reason why he found a different a wrong result.
