Sam exercised by stretching and jogging 5 days last week. • He stretched for a total of 25 minutes during the week. • He jogged

for an equal number of minutes each of the 5 days. • He exercised for a total of 240 minutes. Linda also exercised by stretching and jogging 5 days last week. • She stretched for 15 minutes each day. • She jogged for an equal number of minutes each of the 5 days. • She exercised for a total of 300 minutes. Determine the number of minutes Sam jogged each day last week and the number of minutes Linda jogged each day last week. Show your work or explain all the steps you used to determine your answers.

We know that
Part 1) 
1) <span>Sam exercised by stretching and jogging 5 days last week.
2) </span><span>He stretched for a total of 25 minutes during the week
3) </span><span>He jogged for an equal number of minutes each of the 5 days
4) </span><span>He exercised for a total of 240 minutes

</span>Sam's exercise during the week=stretching + jogging
stretching=25 minutes
Sam's exercise during the week=240 minutes
so
 jogging=240-25-----> 215 minutes
divide 215 minutes by 5
215/5=43 minutes of jogging each day

the answer part 1) is
<span>the number of minutes Sam jogged each day last week is 43 minutes
</span>
Part 2) 
1) <span>Linda also exercised by stretching and jogging 5 days last week
2) </span><span>She stretched for 15 minutes each day
3) </span><span>She jogged for an equal number of minutes each of the 5 days.
4) </span><span>She exercised for a total of 300 minutes

</span>Linda's exercise during the week=stretching + jogging
Linda's exercise during the week=300 minutes
stretching=15*5-----> 75 minutes
jogging=300-75-----> 225 minutes
divide 225 by 5
225/5=45 minutes of jogging each day

the answer part 2) is
the number of minutes Linda jogged each day last week is 45 minutes

what is the equation, in slope- intercept form, of the line that contains the points (-3,4) and (5,7)
gavmur [86]

Answer:

y = \frac{3}{8} x + \frac{41}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

To calculate the slope use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, 7)

m = \frac{7-4}{5+3} = \frac{3}{8}, hence

y = \frac{3}{8} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (5, 7 ), then

7 = \frac{15}{8} + c ⇒ c = 7 - \frac{15}{8} = \frac{41}{8}

y = \frac{3}{8} x + \frac{41}{8} ← equation in slope-intercept form

"At most 12" means "the highest we can go is 12". Think of it as the ceiling. So x can equal 12 or it can be smaller. This means x \le 12

podryga [215]
Okay. So, what we do first is do the distributive property by multiply each number in the parenthesis by 3. When we do that, we get (6x + 12), because 3 * 2x is 6x and 4 * 3 is 12. Now, the numbers written out in long form is 5 + 6x + 12 + 6. 6x is in simplified form, because there is nothing that we can combine it with, but we do need to combine the whole numbers. 5 + 12 is 17, and 17 + 6 is 23. The expression in simplified form is 6x + 23. The answer is B.

Using point slope form determine the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the line y=3x+4 and passes through point (6,-3)
siniylev [52]
I'm not gonna use point-slope form but I will tell you the equation in slope-intersect form. Perpendicular means that the slopes of the 2 equations have to be opposite reciprocals. That means if one is 2, the other slope has to be -1/2. Since the slope is 3, the slope of the equation you are making is -1/3. using desmos.com, I found out that the y-intercept has to be -1, so the equation is y=-1/3x-1
