Answer:
a. connect the point (0 , 3) with A
b. connect the origin (0 , 0) with B
c. For A: y = 0.5x +3
For B: y = 0.5x
Step-by-step explanation:
y = ax + b is the general rule for any straight line
a being the slope and b being the y intercept, a is given to be 0.5
y = 0.5x + b, substitute the coordinates of point A
4 = 0.5 *2 +b hence b = 4 - 0.5 *2 = 4 - 1 = 3
so y = 0.5 x + 3 is the equation of the line passing through A
since the second line that passes through B is parallel to the first, hence it has the same slope of 0.5
same procedure, substitute coordinates of B
2 = 0.5 * 4 + b hence b = 2 - 0.5 *4 = 2 - 2= 0
so y = 0.5 x is the equation of the line passing through B
Answer:
45 = (one third)x + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
If x represents the number of minutes Tom commutes, then (1/3)x is "one-third as many minutes as Tom's commute." 15 minutes more than that is ...
(1/3)x + 15
We are told this is the length of Paul's commute, and that it is 45 minutes. So, the appropriate equation is ...
45 = (1/3)x +15
It is the second option, giving brainiest rewards you with points:)
