Slope-Intercept Form: y = <span><span><span>8/3</span>x </span>+ <span><span>−5/</span><span>3</span></span></span>
Since <span><span>−y</span></span> does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right side of the equation by adding <span>y</span> to both sides.<span>x=<span>y+<span>30</span></span></span>
Liz attempted to factor 36. Since 36 = 3*12 and not 3+12, this is not the way to go. In stead of factoring 36, she should have split it into a friendly sum, like 36=30+6.
Then Step 1 should have been 27(6+30).
Answer:
The problem with this question is that it is missing an important number, which is the length of the tube. Assuming that the tube is 10 meters long (=1,000 centimeters long)
time (in distance traveled distance traveled distance
seconds) by particle A in cms by particle B in cms between both
particles in cms
1 97 49 854
2 93 47 714
3 89 45 580
4 85 43 452
5 81 41 330
6 77 39 214
7 73 37 104
8 69 35 0
After 8 seconds both particles should meet. Particle A traveled 664 centimeters and particle B traveled 336 centimeters.
