Becca: in 1 hour; 

(3(3/4) miles in 1/2 hour)2 
=7.5 miles in 1 hour 

Alice: in 1 hour; 

(5(1/4) miles in 3/4 hours)
She travels 5(1/4)/3 = 1.75 miles in 1/4 hours. 

Travels 1.75x4 = 7 miles in 1 hour 

As seen, Becca runs faster, 0.5 miles per hour faster. 

Hope I helped :)

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to y-3x=2 and that passes through (6,1)?
Artemon [7]

Try this solution (analytic method):

1. if new line is parallel to the given one (y=3x+2) it means the new line has a form y=3x+b, where b - number.

2. In order to calculate 'b', it need to substitute the coordinates of point (6;1) into the equation of the new line:

1=3*6+b, ⇒ b=-17.

3. If to make up the equation of the new line:

y=3x-17

Pls help me help me pls ​
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Point B

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines given:

  • y= 2/5x - 1/2
  • y= -1/3x +2/3

x coordinate of intersection of given lines is:

  • 2/5x - 1/2= -1/3x+2/3
  • 2/5x+1/3x= 2/3 +1/2
  • 6/15x+5/15x= 4/6+3/6
  • 11/15x=7/6
  • x= 7*15/11*6
  • x= 35/22

For this value of x, the value of y is:

  • y= 2/5*35/22 - 1/2
  • y=14/22- 1/2
  • y= 3/22

As per graph point (35/22, 3/22) is point B
