Answer: The equations are
6x - 6y = 9
4x + 4y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the row boat in still water.
Let y represent the speed of the current.
Dana can travel 9 miles in her rowboat in 6 hours against the current. This means that the total speed at which she travelled is
(x - y) miles per hour.
Distance = speed × time
Distance travelled against the current is expressed as
9 = 6(x - y)
6x - 6y = 9
With the current, it takes 4 hours to row the same distance. This means that the total speed at which she travelled is
(x + y) miles per hour.
Distance travelled with the current is expressed as
9 = 4(x + y)
4x + 4y = 9
I think the answer is 8x8 please dont judge me if it is wrong.
The slope-intercept form of the equation for a line is ...
y = (Slope)x + (y-intercept)
Put the given information in the appropriate spot in the equation. Simplify as required.
y = (-1/3)x + 0
can be simplified to
y = (-1/3)x
