Answer:

The faster train goes 60mph

Step-by-step explanation:

s= speed

s+20 is the faster train.

Then you are given:

200/s+s+20=2

200=2*(2s+20)

4s+40=200

4s=160

s=40 is the slower train

40+20= speed of faster one

s=60 ;)

What is the equation of the line with a slope of 3/4 that goes through the point (4, 1) in slope-intercept form?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

y=\frac{3}{4}x+-2

Step-by-step explanation:

We do not have enough information for slope intercept form. But we can use the point-slope formula to find the information. The formula is y -y_{1} =m(x -x_{1}) where we substitute a point (x,y) for (x_{1},y_{1}).  

We have m=3/4 and (4, 1). We input m and x_{1} =4\\y_{1}=1.

y-1=\frac{3}{4} (x-4)

We now simplify the parenthesis and solve for y.

y-1=\frac{3}{4} (x-4)\\y-1=\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{3}{4} (-4)

We convert -4 into a fraction with 1 as the denominator.

y-1=\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{3}{4} (\frac{-4}{1} )\\y-1=\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{-12}{4}\\y-1=\frac{3}{4}x+-3

We add 1 to both sides to isolate y,

y-1+1=\frac{3}{4}x+-3+1\\y=\frac{3}{4}x+-2

This is slope intercept form. The line as slope 3/4 and y-intercept (0,2) or b=2.

 50+ 7.99 x =y
50+ 7.99 (40)= y
50+319.60= y
369.60=y

50+ 7.99 x =y
50 + 7.99 (50)
50+ 399.50=449.50
6.99(30)=209.70
449.50 + 209.70 =659.2
