That big ole 3 right in the middle is the constant of proportionality.
It's noon now, which means that the current time is 12.00
75 x = 120 >> x is the amount of hours needed to get into 120 miles
x = 120 /75
= 1.6 hours
1.6 hours = 1 hour 36 minutes
12.00 + 1 hour 36 minutes = B. 1:36 PM
hope this helps
Answer:
y = -1/2x + 5/2 or y = -0.5x + 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
perpendicular lines have reciprocated slopes (opposite signs and values)
y = 2x + 1 → y = (-1/2x) + b
plug in (3,1) to find b
1 = -1/2(3) + b
1 = -1.5 + b
2.5 = b
y = -1/2x + 5/2 or y = -0.5x + 2.5
Answer:
In 14 weeks, they will have the same earnings.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 55x + 1300 -------- (1)
y = 25x + 1720 -------- (2)
(2) = (1)
55x + 1300 = 25x +1720
55x - 25x = 1720 - 1300
30x = 420
30x ÷ 30 = 420 ÷ 30
x = 14
