Answer:
They rode 14 miles before replacing each horse
Step-by-step explanation:
We will be working under the assumption that all three riders sat on one horse at a time and rode it while the other horses rested.
From the problem, we can understand that the horses were each ridden for the same distance. This means that to get the total distance a horse rode before it was changed, we can divide the total distance by the number of horses that were used for the journey.
Distance each horse rode = 182/ 13 = 14 miles.
Therefore, each horse was ridden for 14 miles before it was changed.
Find the gradient:
m = y2-y1 / x2-x1
m = 6-(-4) / 0-1
m = 10 / -1
m = -10
Slope intercept form:
y = mx + c
Input the values from one of the points to find c (imputing (1,-4) to y=mx+c):
-4 = -10(1) + c
-4 = -10 + c
c = -4 + 10
c = 6
Therefore, the equation is:
y = -10x + 6
Answer:
the answer is 6x.
Step-by-step explanation:
Every time the line is vertical, the slope is ‘no slope or undefined’.
2/17 + 3/7(3x - 5) = -4
2/17 + 9/7x - 15/7 = -4...multiply by LCD of 119 to get rid of fractions
14 + 153x - 255 = - 476
-241 + 153x = -476
153x = -476 + 241
153x = - 235
x = -235/153
