Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Call the first person A who can do the job in 5 hours.

Call the second person B who can do the job in 7 hours.

The formula for this problem is

Time = A*B/(A + B)

Time = 5*7 / (5 + 7)

Time = 35 / 12

Time = 2 hours and 11/12 of an hour.

The answer is D.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for a line that passes through the given pair of points. (-6,5), (-9,0)
11111nata11111 [884]
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b  because m=slope and b=y-intercept hence "slope intercept form"...

m=deltay/deltax=(0-5)/(-9--6)=-5/-3=5/3 so far we have now:

y=5x/3 +b, using any point, I'll use (-9,0) we can now solve for b or the y-intercept...

0=-9(5)/3 +b

0=-15+b, so b=15 and our line is:

y=5x/3 + 15 or more neatly

y=(5x+45)/3
