Given,
slope(m)=-3/4
y intercept (c)=-5
Then,
equation in slope intercept form is
y=mx+c
or, y=(-3/4)×x+(-5)
or, y=-3/4×x-5
Answer:
First do the Base multiplied by the Height.
After divide by 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The mistake she made was timesing the 6 by the -7.5 as there is no x after the 6
Therefore:
-3.8(-7.5) +6
28.5+6 =34.5
The length of hours Gilbert drove is 7.5 hours.
The length of hours Brian drove is 4.1 hours.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- Gilbert averaged = 45 miles per hour
- Brain averaged = 65 miles per hour
- Total hours = 11.6 hours
- Total distance = 604 miles
Let 'x' be the hours Gilbert drove.
Let 'y' be the hours Brian drove.
x+y = 11.6 -----(1)
45x+65y = 604 -----(2)
Multiply (1) by 45 and subtract (2) from (1)
45x+45y = 522
-(<u>45x+65y = 604</u>)
<u> -20y = -82 </u>
y = 82/20
y = 4.1 hours
The length of hours Brian drove = 4.1 hours
Substitute y=4.1 in (1)
x+4.1 = 11.6
x = 7.5 hours
The length of hours Gilbert drove = 7.5 hours
