Answer:
y= 1/2x -5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you multiply 1/2 with x, and 1/2 with -2, which then makes the equation
y+4=1/2x -1
then, you have to subtract 4 from both sides of the equation and combine -1 and -4, which gets you -5.
Then the equation turns out to be
y=1/2x-5
To factor this quadratic equation into double brackets, you need to find two numbers that add together to equal 10, but also multiply to give you 9. These two numbers can be identified as 1 and 9, which will be the numbers you place in your parentheses as follows:
(x+1)(x+9)

Answer:
- northbound: 2.5 hours
- southbound: 1.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
When the second train leaves the station, the trains are already 63 miles apart. The rate of increase of their separation is (57 +63) = 120 miles per hour. The remaining 243-63 = 180 miles of separation will be achieved in ...
(180 mi)/(120 mi/h) = 1.5 h
The northbound train will have traveled 2.5 hours; the southbound train will have traveled 1.5 hours when the trains are 243 miles apart.
