Answer:
y = -7/2x + 17/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = (-9 - - 2)/(5 - 3)
= -7/2
y-intercept: -2 - (-7/2)(3)
= -2 + 21/2 (-2*2+21)/2
= 17/2
You would cross multiply.
14 over 31.5
and X over 10.5
10.5 times 14 is 147
divide that by 31.5 which is 4 1/3
and that is how fast she can run
4 1/3 mph
Multiply the first equation by 2 to then use elimination by adding the 2 equations.
So, 14x-2y=14
+. x+2y=6
Equals 15x=20 so x=20/15=4/3
Plug in to first equation to get y
7(4/3)-y=7
28/3-y=7
28/3-y=21/3
So y=7/3
Plug both x and y into second equation to check
4/3+2(7/3)=
4/3+14/3=18/3=6 it works
So x=4/3, y=7/3
Hope this helps! Have a blessed day!
They leave it on the moon.
