Divisor and Dividend are fractions lying between 0 and 1
Also, Divisor > Dividend
⇒ A smaller number is being divided by a larger number
Whenever a smaller number is divided by a larger number, the quotient is less than 1
E.g. Let divisor be
and dividend be
÷
=
, which is less than 1
Hence, the answer is that the quotient will be less than 1
To find the slope take your points, they should be (x1,y1) (x2,y2), proceed to subtract y2-y1 over x2-x1. after you calculate that simplify and put it in y=mx+B (the slope goes in the m position and x is usually left open)
One way to go about this is to first list everything we know in the form of variables. This will make it easier to see how these numbers correlate instead of trying to remember formulas to plug these numbers into.
TimeA = 2.4h (time of Car A to travel)
TimeB = 4h (time of Car B to travel)
SpeedA = SpeedB + 22mph (Speed of Car A<span>)
</span>SpeedB = SpeedA - 22mph (Speed of Car B<span>)
</span>Distance = x (the distance traveled by each car)
We are looking for SpeedA. How can we find this? Well, we know that speed multiplied by time is equal to distance, so let's start there.
SpeedA * 2.4h = x
<span>(SpeedB + 22mph) * 2.4h = x
</span>(2.4h * SpeedB) + 52.8miles = x
We also know that:
SpeedB * 4h = x
Since both of these equations are equal to x, we can combine them:
SpeedB * 4h = x = <span>(2.4h * SpeedB) + 52.8miles
</span>SpeedB * 4h = <span>(2.4h * SpeedB) + 52.8miles
</span>1.6h * Speed B = 52.8miles
SpeedB = 52.8/1.6 mph = 33 mph
<span>SpeedA = SpeedB + 22mph = 33mph + 22mph = 55mph
</span>
Therefore, Car A was traveling at 55mph.
