This is a line in the form y = mx + b, where b is the y intercept. In your equation above, 3 is the slope, the m value, and -6 is the y-intercept, the b value.
POSITIVE: Well, I suppose you'll actually use math relatively more often in life (compared to science)
Also, in math, if you get a question correct, it will always be correct, unlike English or other languages, if the teacher thinks your writing isn't good, she can give you a bad grade. In English, the grades you get are often subject to the teacher's moods/ opinions of you as a student.
NEGATIVE: Well, it gets boring.
Answer:
Dorsey = 4.8 hours
Campbell = 24 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
It takes "x" hours for Dorsey
So, it will take 5 times more for Campbell, so
It takes "5x" hours for Campbell
Rate is inverse of time, so rates are:
Dorsey: 1/x
Campbell: 1/5x
We know Rate * Time = Work
When together, it takes 4 hours to finish a work, so we can write:
Solving for x, we get the time of Dorsey:
Dorsey takes 4.8 hours alone
Campbell takes 4.8 * 5 = 24 hours alone
You can really just use a calculator...........
