The student completed 13 courses with 3 credit hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total credit hours = 59 credits hours

Total courses = 18

Let,

3 credit hours courses = x

4 credit hours courses = y

According to statement;

x+y=18     Eqn 1

3x+4y=59   Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 3

3(x+y=18)\\3x+3y=54\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(3x+4y)-(3x+3y)=59-54\\3x+4y-3x-3y=5\\y=5

Putting y=5 in Eqn 1

x+5=18\\x=18-5\\x=13

The student completed 13 courses with 3 credit hours.

Jasmine is in a bicycle race. She has already biked 10 miles and is now biking at a rate of 18 miles per hour. Write and equatio
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

y = 18x + 10

slope = 18

y-intercept = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation given in the problem is linear and can be represented using slope-intercept form of a linear equation: y = mx + b, where 'm' is equal to the slope, 'b' is equal to the y-intercept, 'x' is the number of hours and 'y' is the total number of miles.  

Given that Jasmine has already biked 10 miles, her initial value, or y-intercept would be 10.  Since she is now biking at a rate of 18 miles per hour, her rate of change, or slope, would be 18.  

Using these values for 'm' and 'b': y = 18x + 10
