Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a line is expressed as ratio y/x showing how many units y changes, when x changes a certain number of units.

so, going from A to B, x changes 4 units (from -3 to +1), and y changes 6 units (down, from +3 to -3). that makes the y change negative.

so, the slope is

-6/4 = -3/2

Andrew is about to leave for school. If he walks at a speed of 50 meters per minute, he will arrive 3 minutes after the bell rin

Mariana [72]

Answer:

The answer is: 13 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First Let us form equations with the statements in the two scenario

$time=\frac{distance}{speed}$

Let the time in which the bell rings be 'x'

1. If Andrew walks (50 meters/minute), he arrives 3 minutes after the bell rings. Therefore the time of arrival at this speed = (3 + x) minutes

$3 + x =\frac{distance}{50}\\distance = 50(3+x) - - - - - (1)$

2. If Andrew runs (80 meters/minute), he arrives 3 minutes before the bell rings. Therefore the time taken to travel the distance = (x - 3) minutes

$x - 3 = \frac{distance}{80} \\distance = 80(x-3) - - - - - (2)$

In both cases, the same distance is travelled, therefore, equation (1) = equation (2)

$50(3+x)=80(x-3)$

$150 +50x=80x-240\\$

Next, collecting like terms:

$150 + 240 = 80x - 50x\\390 = 30x\\30x = 390\\$

dividing both sides by 3:

x = 390÷30 = 13

∴ x = 13 minutes
