Answer:

200 miles

Explaination:

in order to fiind the point of interaction you must put the world problem into an liner equation.

y=mx+b

key:

miles : x

y= 0.70x + 120

&

y= 0.90x + 80

now you put them together

0.70x + 120 = 0.90x + 80

-0.70x. -0.70x

____________________ subtract slope from both sides

120 = 0.20x + 80. ( doesn't matter which one)

-80 - 80

____________________ subtract

40 = 0.20x

_________ Divide each # with the slope

0.20 0.20

200 = x

hope this helps!

A cruise ship is currently 20 kilometers away from its port and is traveling away from the port at 5 kilometers per hour . The f
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The ship will be 37.5\ km far from its port 3.5 hours from now

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi

The function is y=5x +20 relates the number of kilometers y the ship will be from its port x hours from now, it has a form y=vt+y_{0} \ where \ y\ is\ final\ distance\\v\ is\ velocity\ in\ km/h,\ t\ is\ time\\and\ y_{0}\ is\ initial\ distance.

As the function is clearly defined, we only have to evaluate it for x=3.5, so y(3.5)=5(3.5)+20=17.5+20=37.5 \ km is the distance between the cruise ship and its port after 3.5 hours.
