Simply distribute the -3 across the b and -7.
-3(b - 7) = (-3 * b) + (-3 * -7) = -3b + 21
Hope this was helpful, if it wasn't just drop me a DM explaining what didn't make sense.
In 1500 people of 200 lb each, the total weight would be 300000 lb.
Set up a proportion: 200lb/3.2*10^-5 = 300,000lb/x
(3.2*10^-5*300,000)/200 = x
x = 0.48, I believe
To make the equation easier to look at change it to this:
y = 15 - 3x
To find the x intercept say y = 0.
0 = 15 - 3x
Subtract 15 from each side.
-15 = -3x
Divide each side by -3.
5 = x <–––– x-intercept
The y-intercept of the equation is 15.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
during the first 3mins the bus was accelerating from 0km to 25 kilometers
during the next 90 mins btwn 30mins to 120 mins it was moving at a constant distance n speed
lastly for the last 60 mins from 120 mins to 180 mins it started decelerating from a distance of 25km to 0 km
