Answer:

<em>y=-0.2x+5. Correct choice: A)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Modeling With Equations</u>

Let's call x the number of minutes and y the distance from home. The correct model should meet both conditions:

After 5 minutes, Ye is 4 miles from home. This is the ordered pair (5,4)

After 15 minutes, Ye is 2 miles from home. This is the ordered pair (15,2)

A) y=-0.2x+5. Testing the first point (5,4): y=-0.2*5+5=4. Correct

Testing the second point (15,2): y=-0.2*15+5=2. Correct

This is the correct choice.

B) y=11/7x-27/7. Testing the first point: (5,4) y=11/7*5-27/7=4. Correct

Testing the second point (15,2). y=11/7*15-27/7=138/7. Incorrect

Incorrect choice.

C) This equation is equal to the choice B), thus this one is incorrect.

D) y=5x-0.2. The first point (5,4) yields to:

4=5*5-0.2=24.8 Incorrect.

2/3÷(-14) show your work.
Nookie1986 [14]
(2/3) / -14 is the same as (2/3) * -(1/14) since we can multiply by the reciprocal when dividing with fractions.

2/3 * -1/14 = -2/42 = -1/21
