The slope is the change in Y over the change in x

change in y = -2 - 10 = -12

change in x = 0- -9 = 9

slope = -12/9 which reduces to -4/3

Slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope = (10+2)/(-9-0)
slope = -12/9
slope = -4/3

Citlali was traveling at 60 miles per hour. she has already traveled 120 miles. To get to california which is 360 miles from hom

Scrat [10]

Answer:

4 more hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you know that Citlali is traveling 60 miles per hour so he travels 60 miles every hour. He has already traveled 120 miles so you subtract 120 from 360 because that is the amount of miles Citlali now has to travel. Then, you know that she travels 60 miles per hour so the equation will be 60x=240. Then, you divide 60 in both sides and get x=4. Therefore, it will take four more hours until he arrives at California.

Hope this helps

One morning, John drive 5 hours before stopping to eat. After lunch, he. increased his speed by 10 mph. If he completed a 500-mi

Marrrta [24]

So he drove 5hrs, before lunch, now, he was going at speed, say "r", after he ate, he sped up by 10mph, so, his rate is whatever "r" is, plus 10, or " r + 10 ", after lunch

we know the whole trip took 10hrs, so, is 5hrs before lunch and 5hrs after lunch

we also know the whole trip was 500miles, so if he drove, say "d" miles before lunch, after lunch he drove the slack after lunch, or " 200 - d "

recall, your d = rt, distance = rate * time

$\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&distance&rate&time\\
&-----&-----&-----\\
\textit{before lunch}&d&r&5\\
\textit{after lunch}&500-d&r+10&5
\end{array}
\\\\\\

\begin{cases}
\boxed{d}=5r\\
500-d=(r+10)5\\
----------\\
500-\boxed{5r}=(r+10)5
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{500-5r}{5}=r+10\implies 100-r=r+10$

and I'm sure you know what that is
