make the equation slope-intercept form:
subtract 2x from both sides:
4y = -2x + 12
divide by 4 to get y by itself:
y = -1/2x + 3
to make the new line perpendicular to the existing line, completely flip the slope of the line:
y = 2x + 3
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
28 laps/hour
You divide 35 by 1.25, and you get 28.
Another way is to look at it as 5/4. So 35 divided by 5 gives you 7 laps per 1/4 hour. Then 7 times 4 gives you 28 laps per hour.
Let's compare!
Taylor ran 57 + 48 mins total. Sum would be 105 mins.
Mark ran 62 + 53 mins total. Sum would be 115 mins.
Clearly, the two sums are different when we compare them using subtraction.
115 - 105 = 10. Mark ran 10 mins longer than Taylor.
