You and your friend leave your houses at the same time to meet at a restaurant. The distance (in miles) your friend is from the

restaurant is given by y=-70x+140,where x is the number of hours since your friend left home. You live 80 miles from the restaurant and arrive at the same time as your friend. Write a linear equation that represents your distance from the restaurant.

Answer:

y = 80 -40x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation shows the friend arrives at the restaurant (y=0) when x=2. That is, half the initial distance to the restaurant is covered in each hour of travel time.

If I take 2 hours to travel the 80 miles from my house, my distance will decrease at the rate of 40 miles per hour. My distance from the restaurant can be represented by ...

... y = -40x +80

John is trying to drain a swimming pool. He has two pumps, but he can only use one at a time. He knows that the time a pump take
xeze [42]
What do you mean this sentence?
the time a pump takes to drain the pool varies inversely with the power in watts of the pump,
The meaning would be : if we have a power in watts greater the time to drag the pool will be less because the relation between power and time is inverse.  

40 watts--------------5 hours) 
100 watts------------  x

because the relation between power and time is inverse, we multiply directly.
40 watts(5 hours)=100 watts x
x=(200 watts hours) / 100 watts=2 hours.

Answer: the time would be 2 hours.   (the new pump is faster)

Which pair of lines is parallel? A. y=4x+1 and y+4=5 B. y=-2+x and 2y-2x=-2 C. y=1/4x + 2 and y-2=1/2x D. y=1/5x+1 and 5y+x= 10
sdas [7]

Answer:

B. y=-2+x and 2y-2x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.

The equation 0of a line is tipically written as y=mx + b, where 'm' represents the slope and 'b' the y-intercept.

Let's evaluate each of the options:

A. y=4x+1 and y+4x=5

Writing the equations in the slope-intercept form, we get:

y=4x+1 → m=4

y=5-4x → m=-4

Given that they have different slopes, they are not parallel.

B. y=-2+x and 2y-2x=-2

Writing the equations in the slope-intercept form, we get:

y=-2+x → m=1

y=-1 + x → m=1

Given that the equations have the same slope, they are parallel.

C. y=1/4x + 2 and y-2=1/2x

Writing the equations in the slope-intercept form, we get:

y=1/4x + 2  → m=1/4

y=1/2x+2 → m=1/2

Given that they have different slopes, they are not parallel.

D. y=1/5x+1 and 5y+x= 10

Writing the equations in the slope-intercept form, we get:

y=1/5x+1 → m=1/5

5y+x= 10 → y=2 - 1/5x → m=-1/5

Given that they have different slopes, they are not parallel.
