5x-8y=1...(1)
3x+6y=-21...(2)
(1)*3:
15x-24y=3...(3)
(2)*5:
15x+30y=-105...(2)
(3)-(2):
15x-24y-(15x+30y)=3-(-105)
15x-24y-15x-30y=108
-54y=108
y=-2
You can write this in a proportion way: 6/55 = x/44.
Multiply both sides by 11 to get rid of the 55 and 44: 6/5 = x/4
Now, multiply both sides by 20: 5x = 24. x = 4.8
Therefore, he can run 4.8 miles in 44 minutes.
Answer:
y=mx+b is slope-intercept form
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
Since the line crosses the y axis at 0,0 the intercept is +0 or just nothing.
now all we need to do is find the slope
to do that just go from the y intercept (the first point) y units up and x units over untill u cross at the next point. for examples from (0, 0) to (1, 8)-the next point- i need to go up 8 units up and 1 unit over. this is described as rise over run and that is your slope 8/1 rise/run. rise is how many units i go up (or down) from the y intercept until the next point that lies on the line and run is how far i need to go over from how many units i just went up. If u continue to go 8 up and 1 over from each point u will see that u get a point lying of the line. This is why 8/1 is your slope
8/1 is the slope and 0,0 is your y intercept so we put nothing
the equation is y=8x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The first one : decay
The second one : growth
When the argument of the exponential expression is bigger that 1 then it represents a growth
When it's less than 1 and above 0 then it's a decay
