we know that
1) Mailyn can eat 32 cookies in an hour
1 hour is equal to 60 minutes
<u>Find how cookies eats Mailyn in one minute</u>
by proportion

2) Juan needs 3 hours to eat 32 cookies
<u>Find how cookies eats Juan in one minute</u>
by proportion

<u>3) Find how long will it take them to eat 40 cookies together</u>
we know that
Maylin and Juan eats in one minute together ---------> (0.53+0.18)=0.71 cookies
so
by proportion

therefore
<u>the answer is</u>

y=mx+b - slope intercept form
Slope = 1, y-intercept = 4
m is also the slope
b is the y-intercept
answer;
y=x+4
Simple,
using

find your slope...

thus, 10=m (slope)
Now, using y=mx+b to find your equation, plug in what you know...
Use any of the 2 coordinates.. (1,5)
5= 10(1)+b
5=10+b
-10 -10
-5=b
Thus, the equation to your line is...
y=10x-5.
