Please give the equation.
First, find the x-intercept.
The x-intercept will be at the point (x, 0) where x is any real number. If we substitute the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate for the x and y variables in the equation, we can solve for x.
5y + 3x = 15
5(0) + 3x = 15
3x + 15
x = 5
We found the x-intercept now find the y-intercept with the same process.
The y-intercept will be at the point (0, y) where y is any real number.
5y + 3x = 15
5y + 3(0) = 15
5y = 15
y = 3
So, the x-intercept is (5, 0) and the y-intercept is (0, 3)
Answer:
0.5hrs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed downhill be
,
Speed uphill is
. We are told than speed uphill is
the speed on flat ground. Therefore the speed on level ground will be
.
From this info, we can obtain the actual speed,
on level ground as:

speed, distance and time have the relation
so to obtain time to cover 45miles:

Hence it takes 0.5hrs to cover 45miles on flat ground.
Step-by-step explanation:
x = father's age now
y = son's age now
x = 2y + 10
x - 20 = 5(y - 20) = 5y - 100
using the first in the second equation :
2y + 10 - 20 = 5y - 100
-10 = 3y - 100
90 = 3y
y = 30
x = 2y + 10 = 2×30 + 10 = 60 + 10 = 70
the father is now 70 years old, the son now 30 years old.
