Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There's more ways than one to solve this, just as there's more ways than one to skin a cat.
Two paralle lines have the same slope, so the desired new line looks exactly like the given line 3x + 5y = 6, except that the constant, 6, is replaced by another value.
Write out 3x + 5y = c
Replace x with 0 and y with 3. Then 3(0) + 5(3) = c, and c = 15.
Thus, the equation of the new, parallel, line is 3x + 5y = 15.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Reading rate is y pages per x minutes and proportional relationship formula is:</u>
<u>The coefficient is:</u>
<u>Let's verify if the given numbers fit into the same relationship:</u>
- 12/18 = 2/3
- 8/12 = 2/3
- 20/30 = 2/3
We confirm all same and it means k = 2/3
<u>Required equation is:</u>
This represents that Michael reads 2 pages per 3 minutes and for x minutes he reads 2/3x pages
Would it be 3.4, 4.3, 5.2, 6.1, 7
