Set up a ratio:

9 / 2x-1 = 15 / 3x

Cross multiply:

9 *3x = 15 * 2x-1

Simplify:

27x = 30x - 15

Subtract 30x from both sides.

-3x = -15

Divide both sides by -3:

x = -15 / -3

x = 5

A line with a slope of -1 passes through the point (2,-1). If (-4, p) is another point on the line,

$(\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{p}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{p}-\stackrel{y1}{(-1)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{-4}-\underset{x_1}{2}}}~~= ~~\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-1}\implies \cfrac{p+1}{-6}=-1\implies p+1=6\implies p=5$

How do you do this question it is kinda difficult to understand

Dafna1 [17]

Speed = slope of the line = 20 / 0.5 = 40 km / hr

Second part will be a line with downward slope from the end of the horizontal line Slop = 20 / 1/3 (=60 km/h) So it will pass through the 65 on horizontal axis.
