Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the gradient is given by:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1), where two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are given.

Thus if we have a gradient of 2.5 and two points (3, 8) and (x, 13), we can substitute this into the above formula for the gradient to get:

2.5 = (13 - 8)/(x - 3)

2.5(x - 3) = 5 (Multiply both sides by (x - 3))

x - 3 = 2 (Divide both sides by 2.5)

x = 5 (Add 3 to both sides)

Thus, the value of x is 5.

Answer #1- 8 mins
Answer #2-$0.571

Explanation for #1:

For this first equation you need to find 1 mike per ___ minutes. To get from 10 to 1, you need to divide by 10. This can also be put into this equation—

10x=80

So, to find how many minutes for each mile, divide 80 by 10. This will result in 8. This means that Dan ran 1 mile in 8 minutes.


Explanation for #2:

For this next one we see that we need to find how much Yoko spent on each pound of rice.

Since we are trying to find 1 pound of rice per ___ dollars, we need to divide both 14 and 8 by 14. This can also be put into this equation—

14x=8

Once this is done we know that 1 pound of rice is equal to 0.571428571428571 cents. But, since you are required to round to the nearest hundredth, the answer will only be $0.571.

Hope this helps comment below for more questions :)
