Y = -2.8x +69.4
Let y represent units of inventory, and x represent days since the last replenishment. We are given points (x, y) = (3, 61) and (13, 33). The line through these points can be described using the 2-point form of the equation of a line:
... y -y1 = (y2-y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1)
Filling in the given point values, we have ...
... y -61 = (33 -61)/(13 -3)(x -3)
Simplifying and adding 61, we get ...
... y = -2.8x +69.4
3/4 times 3/2 (reciprocal of the second fraction) is 9/8 gallons per minute.
5/8 times 2/1 (reciprocal of the second fraction) is 10/8 gallons per minute
The second tank is filling faster.
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
-3k / ( k-2) + 6 / ( k-2)
since the denominators are the same we can add the numerators
(-3k+6) / ( k-2)
Factor out -3
-3 ( k-2)/ ( k-2)
Cancel like terms
-3
