C. -3 is passed through through 2 different point meaning it’s a vertical linear equation. So y=-3
The equation in y = mx+b form is y = -450x+2745
where,
x = number of hours that have passed by
y = distance to destination in miles
The y intercept is 2745 since this is the initial starting y value, aka the starting distance. Therefore b = 2745.
The slope is -450 or -450/1 since for each hour, the distance goes down by 450. You can think of it as
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
slope = (change in distance)/(change in time)
slope = (-450 miles)/(1 hour)
slope = -450

Answer: Choice D) -6 < -5</h3>
================================================
Explanation:
Let's go through the answer choices
- A) This is false because -2 is actually larger than -5. Make a number line and you'll see that -2 is to the right of -5. Numbers on the right are larger than numbers on the left.
- B) This is also false. The value 0 is smaller than 2. A number line might help show this.
- C) Also false. It should be 4 > -4. Any positive number is always larger than any negative number.
- D) This is true. On a number line, -6 is to the left of -5, so -6 is smaller than -5. This makes -6 < -5 a true statement.
Answer:
180 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
24 hrs in a day
5/6 of 24 is 20 and multiply it by 9 because there are 9 days
=180
