Answer:
Claire traveled for 9 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total Distance traveled = 701 miles
Distance traveled each day = 80 miles
Distance traveled on last day = 61 miles
We need to find the number of days Claire traveled.
Solution:
Let the number of days Claire traveled be denoted by 'd'.
Now we can say that;
Total Distance traveled is equal to sum of Distance traveled each day multiplied by number of days and Distance traveled on last day.
framing in equation form we get;

Now Subtracting both side by 61 using Subtraction Property of Equality we get;

Now Dividing both side by 80 we get;

Hence Claire traveled 80 miles in 8 days and 61 miles on last day making of total <u>9 days</u> of travel.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The given blue line has a slope of m = -1/2.
The line parallel to the given line passing through point (x0,y0)=(2,3) is given by the point-slope form:
(y-y0)=m(x-x0)
substitute values
(y-3) = (-1/2)(x-2)
Expand and transpose
y = (-1/2)x + 1 + 3
y = (-1/2)x + 4 ....................(1)
We choose the second equation b. x+2y=8 and convert to slope-intercept form:
2y=-x+8
y = (-1/2)x + 4, which is exactly equation (1)
So
b. x+2y=8 is the correct answer.
Answer:
slope is -1
Step-by-step explanation:
slope is
m= (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) = -5+6 /2-3 = 1/-1 = -1
