Answer:
4 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the time to returned back biking in hours
d ---> the distance in miles
s ---> speed in miles per hour
Remember that
The speed or rate is equal to divide the distance by the time
The distance is equal to multiply the speed by the time
we know that
The distance to his friend's house and the distance of return is the same
so
solve for x
subtract 4x both sides
The total distance of the round trip is
substitute the value of x
To write the equation of line in y = mx + b form, we need
to identify the slope of the line and the y-intercept.
I would start by setting up a coordinate
system and plotting both points.
I have shown this below.
Let's start with our first point, (3, -1) which we call point A.
Now our second point, (6, 1) which we call point B.
To get from point A to point B, we rise 2 units and run 3 units.
So we know that our slope is 2/3.
However, we need the y-intercept.
Remember, this is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
Since point B is farther from y-axis,
we need to go in the other direction.
So starting at point A, we go down 2 and to the left 3.
Remember, -2/-3 is 2/3 since a negative/negative = positive.
Now plot point C.
Notice that point C is on the y-axis.
It has the coordinates (0,-3).
Now we know our slope and y-intercept.
So our equation reads 2/3x - 3.
The slope is positive since the line is going up.
