Answer:

The answer to your question is 166 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

ve = rate eastbound train

vw = rate westbound train = ve - 14

distance = d = 900 mi

time = t = 5 h

Formula

v = \frac{distance}{time} = \frac{d}{t}

Substitution and simplification

ve = \frac{900}{5} = 180 mi/h

Now, substitute this value in the equation of vw

vw = 180 - 14

Result

vw = 166 mi/h

A line passes through the points (7, 3) and (8, 3). What is its equation in slope-intercept form?
Sati [7]

Answer:

y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

The y values are the same, so there cannot be a slope. The (mx) part of y=mx+b is cancelled out, and is left with the b. Since the y value is forever three, the y-intercept will be 3 as well.

Therefore, the slope-intercept equation is

y=3
