Remark
There are two formulas for doing this. I'll use the one that does not involve the slope. I think it will be easier for you to understand.
Step One
Decide which point is (x1,y1)
Since point P is 2/5 the way up from point A, we will call (x1,y1) point A
Step Two
Write the givens.
Point(A) = (-2,-3)
Point(B) = (3,2)
Step Three
Write the formula
x1 + ratio*(x2 - x1), y1 + ratio(y2 - y1)
Sub and solve.
-2 + 2/5 *(3 - - 2) , -3 + 2/5*(2 - -3)
-2 + 2/5(5) , - 3 + 2
-2 + 2 , - 1
P = (0 , - 1) <<<<<< Answer

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
i dont have paper with me rn so i cant actually write the equations, but slope intercept is y=mx+b form so all you have to do is find the slopes (y2-y1/x2-x1) and plug a coordinate into point slope form. simplify and rearrange to y=mx+b form. hope this helped
Make two equations from the information. Then graph them and see where they intersect. The answer is 62 miles. Plug 62 back into both equations and they should both be the same number.
Answer:
m= 4.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of miles Evelyn can run be m and can be modeled by the equation below
m= kx
Where x Is the Minutes
When m= 3
x= 40
3= k40
k= 3/40
If x= 60
m=3/40(60)
m = (60*3)/40
m= 180/40
m= 4.5 miles
