Find the equation of the line connecting (0, 5) and (-2, 0).
As we go from the first point to the second, x decreases by 2 and y decreases by 5. Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -5/(-2), or 5/2.
Starting with the general equation of a line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, substitute the knowns as appropriate to determine the value of b:
y= mx + b => 5 = (5/2)(0) + b. Then b = 5, and the desired equation is
y = (5/2)x + 5.
Check this! If we subst. the coordinates of (-2,0) into this equation, is the equation true?
0 = (5/2)(-2) + 5
Yes. So, y = (5/2)x + 5 is the desired equation.
This function is sketched on the A picture.
<span>y – 2 = 2/3(x – 6)
</span>y = 2/3x - 4 + 2
y = 2/3x - 2
y = ax+b
b = -2
b is y-intercept
Zero of the function:
0 = 2/3x - 2
2 = 2/3x
x = 3
y-intercept (0, -2)
x- intercept (3, 0)

Answer:
5 minutes to run 1 kilometer
Step-by-step explanation:
Alonzo takes 12 minutes to run 6 times around a 400-meter track.
6 times around a 400 m track
400 * 6 = 2400 meters
It take 12 minutes to run 2400 meters
2400 meters = 2400/1000 = 2.4km
distance = 2.4 km and time = 12 minutes
Now we find our constant speed
2.4 = speed * 12
divide by 12 on both sides
speed = 0.2
so speed is 0.2 km per minute
Now we find out time when distance = 1km
Distance = speed * time
1 = 0.2 * t
divide by 0.2 on both sides
5 = t
So it take 5 minutes to run 1 kilometer
