A line passes through the point (-3,-3) and has a slope of 1/2 what is the equation of the line ?

Answer:

y = 1/2x -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is typically written as y = mx + b.

m is the slope of the line, while b is the y-intercept. y is the y-coordinate and x is the x-coordinate.

Since it indicated that the line has a slope of 1/2, we can substitute the m in the equation with 1/2.

y = 1/2x + b

In order to find the intercept of the line, we use the equation of a line to substitute the y-coordinate and x-coordinate of (-3,-3) to discover the y-intercept of b.

-3 = 1/2(-3) + b

One half of -3 is -1.5.

-3 = -1.5 + b

Add -1.5 to both sides of the equation.

-3 = -1.5 + b

+1.5  +1.5

-1.5 = b

Since we found the y-intercept, we can now place it into our equation.

y = 1/2x -1.5 and that's the answer!

Two skiers are 30 kilometers apart and head towards each other. They meet in 2 hours. If the second skier is 5 kilometers per ho
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Speed of first skier = 5 km/h

Speed of second skier = 10 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance between skiers = 30 km

Time after which they meet = 2 hours

Second skier is 5 km/h faster than the first skier.

To find speed of each skier.

Solution:

Let the speed of first skier be in km/h =x

<em>Distance covered in km 2 hours will be = Speed\times time=x\times 2=2x\ km</em>

Speed of second skier in km/h can be given as = x+5

<em>Distance traveled by second skier after 2 hours will be = Speed\times time=(x+5)\times 2=(2x+10)\ km   [Using distribution]</em>

Since, the skiers were 30 km apart initially, so the total distance covered by both of them when they meet after 2 hours will be = 30 km

Thus, we have:

2x+2x+10=30

Solving for x

4x+10=30

Subtracting both sides by 10.

4x+10-10=30-10

4x=20

Dividing both sides by 4.

\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{20}{4}

x=5

Speed of first skier = 5 km/h

Speed of second skier = 5+5 = 10 km/h
