4x - 5y = 40
4x = 40 + 5y
x = 10 + 5/4y
The x intercept is 10.
Slope intercepf is y=mx+b wherem=slope and b= y intercept
slope is found by doing
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
points are (6,-1) and (-3,2)
(x,y)
x1=6
y1=-1
x2=-3
y2=2
subsitute
(-1-2)/(6-(-2))=-3/(6+2)=-3/8
slope=-3/8
subsitute
y=-3/8x+b
subsitute and solve for b
(-3,2)
x=-3
y=2
2=-3/8(-3)+b
2=9/8+b
2=16/8
subtract 9/8 from both sides
16/8-9/8=b
7/8=b
y=-3/9x+7/8 is the equation

<u>Step 1: Find the slope</u>

Answer: The slope is 13
Your distance is 1424 and your rate is 356. As you said, d = r*t. Since you don't have the time you would do 1424 divided by 356. This leaves you with a time of 4 hours. (Don't forget units!)
