Answer: The equation is y = -6*x
Step-by-step explanation:
I suppose that we want to find the equation for a line that passes through the point (-1, 6) and the origin (remember that the origin is the point (0,0))
A general linear equation is written as:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
If this line passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), then the slope of the line is equal to:
a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Now we know that our line passes through the points (0, 0) and (-1, 6), then the slope is:
a = (6 - 0)/(-1 - 0) = 6/-1 = -6
Then our equation is something like:
y = -6*x + b
To find the value of b we can use the fact that this line passes through the point (0, 0).
This means that when x = 0, y is also equal to zero.
If we replace these values in the equation we get:
0 = -6*0 + b
0 = b
Then our equation is:
y = -6*x
Answer:
x= 1/4 .....................
y=-1
Answer:
Speed of a= 21 miles/hr
r = Speed of b= 7 miles/hr
Speed of a = 3r
Step-by-step explanation:
The cyclist are 112 miles apart
Time traveled by two = 4 hours
Speed of a = 3 * speed of b
If a cylcles 3 times More than b, then a will cover 3*distance of b
But speed = distance/time
Time = 4hours
Total distance=112
a = 3b
3b + b = 112
4b = 112
b = 112/4
b = 28 miles
a = 3b
a = 3*28
a = 84 Miles
They bought traveled 4 hours
Speed of a = 84miles/4 hours
Speed of a= 21 miles/hr
Speed of b = 28miles/4 hours
Speed of b = 7 miles/hr
Answer:
320 or 40 sorry if I´m wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: -4(3x-1) becomes -12x+4
step 2: -12x+4=12-8x
step 3: add 12x to both sides, 4=12+4x
step 4: subtract twelve from both sides -8=4x
step 5: divide by 4, x=-2
