Hi there!
The answer is -1.2857
Hope this helps!
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

m - slope
b - y-intercept
The formula of a slope:

Q1.
We have the equation of a line <em>p </em>in the standard form

Convert to the slope-intercept form:
<em>subtract 3x from both sides</em>
<em>divide both sides by (-3)</em>

The slope 
From the table we have the points (4, 3) and (7, 5). Calculate the slope of line <em>q</em>:

Divide the slope of <em>p</em> by the slope of <em>q</em>:

Q2.
Parallel line have the same slope. Therefore, if we have the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, then we have the slope:

Q3.
Parallel line have the same slope.
Calculate the slope from given points (-11, 5) and (-6, 1):

Answer:
x=12
Step by step explanation:
Step by step explanation:Add 9 to both sides :
15 = 2x - 9
15 + 9 = 2x - 9 + 9
Simplify:
24 = 2x
Divide both sides to get the result:
24 = 2x
24/2 = (2x)/2
Result:
x=12


The problem statement gives you the relationship between their speeds, and it gives you information you can use to find their total speed. You solve this by finding the total speed, then the proportion of that belonging to Bill.
The total speed is (120 mi)/(3 h) = 40 mi/h.
The speed ratio is ...
... Bill : Joe = 3 : 1
so the speed ratio Bill : Total is ...
... 3 : (3+1) = 3:4.
Bill's speed is (3/4)×(40 mi/h) = 30 mi/h.
