Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
if it is solution point (4, –2) must satisfy both equations
(1) –3x – 2y = –8-->-3*4-2*(-2)=-8
-12+4=-8 then-->-8=-8 ok
(2) y = 2x – 5
-2=2*4-5=3---------->-2 is not 3
the point (4, –2) is not solution of the system of equations
8 am at 0
8:18 at 4.5
8:48 at 7.5 miles ???
18 min = .3 hour
48 min = .8 hour
in first .3 hours speed = 4.5/.3 = 15 mph
in next .5 hours = speed = 3/.5 = 6 mph
average speed for the whole trip = 7.5 miles/.8 hours = 9.375 mph
Hello!
The equation would be y= -2/6x + (-3). Since, the y-intercept is -3 and the slope/growth is -2/6 (it's decreasing).
To find the slope just make a growth triangle. We go down twice (then to the right 6 times).
