Answer: The starting time is 2:27 and finishing time is 7:09.    


Step-by-step explanation: It is given that Ben started from 4th street and he finished at 98th street.

Also, at 3:00, he was on 15th street and at 4:30, he was on 45th street.

That is, time taken to cover (45-15), i.e., 30 streets is 90 minutes,                           so the time taken to cover 1 street is 3 minutes.

Therefore, Ben covers distance from one street to second in 3 minutes. Since he started from 4th street, and there are 11 streets to cover between 4 and 15, so Ben's starting time was (3:00 - 3×11 min) = 2:27.

And his finishing time was (4:30 + 3×53 min) = 7:09.

Again, the equation that tells us on what street 'N' he was after time 'T' of his starting can be written as

N=4+\dfrac{T}{3.}

Thus, the starting and finishing time was 2:27 and 7:09 respectively.

15/15 (the whole pizza which equals 1) -13/15= 2/15

Which best describes the graph of the function f(x) = -5x ?
il63 [147K]

Answer:

This is a simple slope intercept form equation: y=ax+b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept, but in this problem the y-intercept is 0 so it is no shown.

The line on the graph would be negative (downward) because of the negative and would be going down by a slope of -5.
