The way we can find out the unit rate (also known as the <em><u>SLOPE</u></em>) is by using the table as coordinates!
The slope formula is 
With the table, the TIME column can be "x"
The DISTANCE column can be "y"
____________________________
As coordinates, it would look like...
(0,0)
(20, 25)
(30, 37.5) and so on!
_____________________________
All we need to do now is use 2 of these coordinates and plug them into the slope formula in their correct places to find the unit rate!
Example:
solve!
= 12.5/10 ⇒ 1.25 ( or 5/4 in fraction form)
Answer:
y= 9x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
4(4m + -3) + -1(m + -5) = -52
Reorder the terms:
4(-3 + 4m) + -1(m + -5) = -52
(-3 * 4 + 4m * 4) + -1(m + -5) = -52
(-12 + 16m) + -1(m + -5) = -52
Reorder the terms:
-12 + 16m + -1(-5 + m) = -52
-12 + 16m + (-5 * -1 + m * -1) = -52
-12 + 16m + (5 + -1m) = -52
Reorder the terms:
-12 + 5 + 16m + -1m = -52
Combine like terms: -12 + 5 = -7
-7 + 16m + -1m = -52
Combine like terms: 16m + -1m = 15m
-7 + 15m = -52
Solving
-7 + 15m = -52
Solving for variable 'm'.
Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '7' to each side of the equation.
-7 + 7 + 15m = -52 + 7
Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0
0 + 15m = -52 + 7
15m = -52 + 7
Combine like terms: -52 + 7 = -45
15m = -45
Divide each side by '15'.
m = -3
Simplifying
m = -3
Hope this helped :)
