The Point-Slope Equation: Pt 3

Mathematics
1 answer:
NARA [144]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

y = -1/20x + 22

Step-by-step explanation:

The family trip is a linear model and its equation can be written as a linear equation y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope is the constant rate of change. The rate of change here is 1 gallon per 20 miles or -1/20 since each gallon used decreases from the overall gas tank. Substitute m = -1/20.

The y-intercept is the starting point or the number of gallons the tank in the van holds. Since the van had 16 gallons after 120 miles, this means there was 22 gallons. Since 120 miles has been spent at 20 miles a gallon, it took 120 / 20 = 6 gallons to drive that far. So 16 + 6 = 22 gallons. Substitute b = 22.

y = mx + b

y = -1/20x + 22

An airplane flies to San Francisco from Los Angeles in 4 hours. It flies back in 3 hours. If the wind is blowing from the north
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Airspeed in still air:  140 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the speed in still air.  Recognize that the distance traveled is the same in either direction.

Also note that SF is north of LA.

Distance to SF from LA     =      Distance to LA from SF

(s-20)(mph)(4 hr)                 =    (s+20)(mph)(3 hr)

Then:

4s - 80 = 3s + 60 => s = 60 + 80 + 140 (mph)

The airspeed of the plane was 140 mph in still air.  With a tail wind, the plane  is faster; with a headwind, slower.

Answer quick pls!
Flauer [41]

Answer:

$290

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the equation that Skate Land created to find the total cost

C = 7.50p + 65

p = people so if we have 30 people, we have to solve 7.50 x 30

C = 225 + 65

we can now add the flat fee of $65 to get the total cost for the birthday part

C = $290

hope this helps :)
