A line with slope of -3 passes through the points ( x , -6 ) and ( -2 , 6 ). What is the missing x-coordinate?

1 answer:

6 0

We can use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1 to find the answer. Therefore, we would have: 6-(-6)/-2-x equalling -3. So, 12/-2-x = -3. We multiply both sides by -2-x and get 12 = -3(-2 - x), then 12 = 6+ 3x. We then get 6 = 3x, and by dividing both sides by 2 we get x = 2.

A tortoise is walking in the desert. It walks at a speed of 2 meters per minute for 2.56 meters. For how many minutes does it wa

zaharov [31]

distance = rate * time

2.56 meters = 2meter/min * t

divide by 2 on each side

2.56/2 =t

1.28 minutes =t
