(1,-1) and (3,5)
Find slope first
y=mx+b
slope is also m
b is y-intercept
slope = y2-y1/x2-x1
x1=1
x2=3
y1=-1
y2=5
5-(-1)/(3)-(1)
6/2=3
y=3x+b
use (1,-1) into y=3x+b ( using substitution method)
-1=3(1)+b
-1=3+b
Move 3 to the other side
Sign changes from +3 to -3
-1-3+3-3+b
b=-4
Answer: C.) Y = 3x-4
Answer:
5x

Answer:
(1/2,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Let time taken by Luke to cover the distance = x hours
Speed of Luke = 6 miles per hour
Therefore, Distance covered by Luke = 6x ------(1)
Speed of Micah = 4 miles per hour
Since Micah walked 2 miles before Luke started running, Luke started 1/2 an hour after Micah started.
Therefore time taken by Micah to cover the distance = x+1/2
Distance covered by Micah = 4(x + 1/2) -------(2)
Equating (1) and (2)
6x = 4(x+1/2)
6x = 4x +2
2x = 2
x= 1
Therefore Luke would take 1 hour to cover the distance covered by Micah.</span>
