We are given two points: (4, -8) and (8, 5)

General equation of a line: y = mx + c

First find m (the gradient). There is a formula for this: (change in y)/(change in x) = gradient

(5 - -8) / (8 - 4) = (13) / (4) = 3.25 = m

y = 3.25x + c

Now we need to find c (the y-intercept; the value of y when x=0).

Substitute in any one of the coordinates - let's use (8, 5)

(5) = 3.25(8) + c

(5) = 26 + c

c = -21

The equation of the line: y = 3.25x - 21


I think that this answer is correct - sorry if it seems rushed.

Hope this answer helps :)

Fantom [35]

Answer:

William

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 8 Saturday and Sunday in a month. William travels only on Saturdays and Sundays and has flown 1,020 miles this month. <em>He has travelled (1020/8) miles per day = 127.5 miles/day</em>

There are 30-8 = 22 weekdays in a month. Jason travels every weekday and has flown 2,200 miles this month. <em>It would mean that he travelled (2200/22) = 100 miles/day.</em>

It is very clear that no of miles travelled per day by William is more than the no of miles travelled per day by Jason for this month.
