Help please: A bus and a train leave a station at the same time, t = 0. The graph shows the bus's distance to the next station o
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

y = (5/2)x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the bus and train are both at the station at time 0, the y-intercept for the new equation is 20. That is one point on the new graph: (0,20) The question said that the train travels faster, that means it spends less time getting to the next station. The existing graph shows the bus got to the next station in 10 minutes, so maybe the train got there in 8 minutes. So another point on the graph is (8,0) We can use a slope formula to calculate the slope of a new line. Or just count squares on the graph (se image) to find the slope. Slope tells how steep a line is, whether the line is going up or down, but also the slope is like directions how to get from one point to another point on the line.

All you need to write an equation is the slope, m and the y-intercept, b and fill those two numbers into the formula y=mx+b Here slope is 5/2 and y-intercept is 20. So you get

y=(5/2)x +20

Write an equation of a line passing through the point (4,-9) and parallel to the line 3x-6y=30
sesenic [268]

The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where

m represents slope

c represents y intercept

The equation of the given line is expressed as

3x - 6y = 30

Rearranging it so that it will look like the slope intercept form, it becomes

6y = 3x - 30

Dividing both sides by 6, it becomes

6y/6 = 3x/6 - 30/6

y = x/2 - 5

Looking at the equation, slope, m = 1/2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have equal slope. This means that the slope of the line parallel to the given line is 1/2

To determine the y intercept, c of the line passing through the point (4, - 9), we would substitute

x = 4, y = - 9 and m = 1/2 into the slope intercept equation. It becomes

- 9 = 1/2 * 4 + c

- 9 = 2 + c

c = - 9 - 2

c = - 11

By substtuting m = 1/2 and c = - 11 into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the line would be

y = x/2 - 11
