1/2 is written as a decimal as 0.50
<span>The first choice is correct.
Explanation<span>:
The formula for slope is m=(y</span></span>₂<span><span>-y</span></span>₁<span><span>)/(x</span></span>₂<span><span>-x</span></span>₁<span><span>). Once we find the slope using that formula, it goes in place of m in y=mx+b.
We do not yet have the y-intercept, but we can use one of the points to find it. We substitute the x-coordinate of one point in for x and the y-coordinate of the same point in for y; then we solve for b. This gives us the y-intercept.</span></span>
Refer to the diagram shown below.
The exit for Freestone is built midway between Roseville and Edgewood,
therefore the distance from O to the new exit is
(1/2)*(33+55) = 44 mi.
Let x = distance from Midtown to the new exit.
Because the distance from O to the new exit is equal to (x + 17), therefore
x + 17 = 44
x = 44 - 17 = 27 mi.
Answer:
When the new exit is built, the distance from the exit for Midtown to the exit for Freestone will be 27 miles.
-- 9 people paint 5 walls in 60 minutes
-- 9 people paint (5 / 5) = 1 wall in (60 / 5) = 12 minutes
-- (9 / 9) = 1 person paints 1 wall in (9 x 12) = 108 minutes
-- 1 person paints (1 x 6) = 6 walls in (108 x 6) = 648 minutes
-- (1 x 4) = 4 people paint 6 walls in (648 / 4) = 162 minutes .
