Idk if this wil help but...



Let speed of Matthew be X yards/min  Speed of Lowe = 3X yards/min.


Distance covered by Matthew in 30 minutes = 30X


Distance covered by Lowe in 30 minutes = 30(3X)= 90X


90X = 30X + 1200       X = 20 yards/min

Let speed of Matthew be X yards/min  Speed of Lowe = 3X yards/min.


Distance covered by Matthew in 30 minutes = 30X


Distance covered by Lowe in 30 minutes = 30(3X)= 90X


90X = 30X + 1200       X = 20 yards/min

Which of the following is the point-slope form of the line?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the slope is positive, which means that the x-term must be positive.

If you expand and simply both equations into the form y = mx + b, you will find that m is positive for A and negative for B, hence A is the correct answer.

A couch and coffee table cost a total of $1080. The cost of the couch is two times the cost of the coffee table. Find the cost o
Alborosie

Answer:

$720

$360

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of couch be A and that of coffee table be B

Given couch and coffee table cost $1080

That’s

A + B = $1080

Also, the cost of couch A is 2 times the cost of coffeee table B.

That’s

A = 2B

We now have two equations

A + B = 1080

A = 2B

Now ,substitute 2B for A in the first equation .

We have

A + B = 1080

2B + B = 1080

3B = 1080

Divide both sides by 3

3B/3 = 1080/3

B = 360

The coffee table cost $360

Remember A = 2B

Therefore

A = 2 x $360

A = $720

The couch cost $720 while the coffee table cost $360
