Y=-5/9x + b
Substitute the points in the equation to give you two equations.
1. 7=-5a/9 + b
2. a= -5/9(1) + b
Then solve using either substitution or elimination.

Slope -2/3, through (-1,-6) <br><br> What is the equation of the line?
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 6 = -2/3(x + 1)

y + 6= -2/3x - 2/3

y + 18/3 = -2/3x - 2/3

y = -2/3x - 20/3

Train travels at 3 hours if it's speed is 65 miles per hour. It takes the train 2.5 hours if it's speed is 78 per hour . Identif
seraphim [82]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original speed of the train be x km/h.

Time taken to cover a distance of 360 km =  360/x hours.

New speed of the train = (x+5) km/h.

Time taken to cover a distance of 360 km at new speed = 360/x+5 hours.

Since, the train takes 1 hour less time,

∴360/x - 360/ x+5 = 1

⇒360 (5) = x² + 5x

⇒1800 = x² + 5x

⇒x² + 5x - 1800 = 0

⇒x² + 45x - 40x - 1800 = 0

⇒x (x+45) - 40( x +45) = 0

⇒(x+45) (x-40) = 0

⇒x = (-45), 40

But since speed cannot be in negative.

∴x = 40 km/hr.

Hence, the original speed of the train is 40 km/h.
