Answer:
20/9
Step-by-step explanation:
2/(9/10)=(2/1)(10/9)=20/9
One way of determining the answer is by substituting the values to the equation. It is done as follows:
A. (4,1)
<span>y = 3x - 1
</span>1 = 3(4) - 1 = 11 -------> not equal
B. (2,5)
<span>y = 3x - 1
</span>5 = 3(2) - 1 = 5 --------> equal
C. (4,3)
<span>y = 3x - 1
</span>3 = 3(4) -1 --------------> not equal
D. (0, -3)
<span>y = 3x - 1
-3 = 3(0) -1 = -1 ---------> not equal</span>
The path of the car and the limo are straight lines.
To determine the equation of the lines of the paths, the slopes must be determined.
Let m1 = slope of car
m2 = slope of limo
so,
m1 = (7 + 7)/(5 + 2) = 2
m2 = (-5 -9)/(3+4) = -2
therefore the equations are
car:
2x – y = 2(5) –(7)
2x – y = 3
Limo:
2x + y = 2(3) – 5
2x + y = 1
Solving the intersection of the equations (using a calculator)
x = 1
y = -1
