Answer:

y = -(2/3)x + 3  

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the equation that was given is - 2/3

The slope in a slope intercept equation is the number in front of the x when the value of the number in front of the y = 1 and x and y are on opposite sides of the equal sign. Let's translate that.

The original equation is y = -(2/3)x + 5/3

  • y and x have to be on opposite sides of the equal sign [They are]
  • The slope is the number in front of the x. That's (-2/3).  That makes A incorrect.

Now you need to use the given point

The point is (-3 , 5) Put this into the equation that you have so far

y = (-2/3)x + b

y = 5

x = -3

5 = (-2/3)(-3/1) + b Substitute in the givens

5 = (-2 * -3)/3 + b Multiply -2 * - 3 = 6

5 = 6/3  + b          Divide the 6 by 3

5 = 2 + b               Divide

5 - 2 = b                Subtract 2 from both sides

3 = b                      Switch sides

b = 3

Answer y = (-2/3)x + 3 or C

maw [93]
If the average rates were 20 and 25 miles per hour, then together they cover 45 miles of the distance they are separated by per hour.  The ships will be 30 miles apart when 270 miles have been covered, so it takes 270/45=6 hours to cover the distance.  6 hours after 5 PM is 11:00 PM.
