February 2 . . . . . 8,589,934,592 <=== more than the Earth's
human population.
Pick two points
(2, 18) and (4,21)
(21-18)/(4-2) = 3/2
The slope is 3/2
16
.......................
3/(x+2) = 2/x
multiply both fractions by x(x+2) to cancel out the bottoms
so it becomes 3x = 2x+4
ow subtract 2X from both sides and you get
x = 4
so it took Juan 4 hours
it took Yumi 2 hours more so 4+2 = 6 hours
