Answer:

a=35

b=20

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b =55

a=b+15

b+15 +b =55

2b=55 - 15

2b=40

b=40 :2

b=20 (the smallest number)

a=20 +15 =35 (the largest number)

Answer:

→ The table is:

→  x  →  -1   →  0  →  1

→  y  →  -3  →  0  →  3

The graph of the line is figure d

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ y = 3x

∵ x = -1, 0, 1

→ Substitute the values of x in the equation to find the values of y

∴ y = 3(-1) = -3

∴ y = 3(0) = 0

∴ y = 3(1) = 3

→ The table is:

→  x  →  -1   →  0  →  1

→  y  →  -3  →  0  →  3

∵ The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

∵ y = 3x

→ Compare the equation with the form

∴ m = 3

∴ b = 0

→ That means the slope is positive, then the direction of the line must

   be from left tp right and passes through the origin

∴ The graph of the line is figure d

A tortoise is walking in the desert. it takes 3 minutes to walk 4.8 meters. what is its speed?
postnew [5]
We have to know divide the total meters that has been traveled by the tortoise which is for 4.8 meters to the time it was completed which is 3 minutes. The formula for speed is: [ speed = distance/time ]. So the equation will be 4.8 meters/3 minutes = 1.6 meters per minute. The speed of the tortoise is 1.6 meters per minute.
