This is esay to do when you realize the the speed of mowing is addtive. This is if John mows at 1 lawn / (2/3) hour and Gerge mows at 1 lawn / 1hour, the total speed of mowing is:
1 / (2/3) + 1 = 3/2 + 1 = 5/2
=> 5/2 of lawn per hour
Now, the time is calcualted as the amount of lawn divided by the speed:
1 lawn / (5/2 lawn/hour) = 2/5 hour.
Answer: 2/5 of an hour.
Slope intercept form is y = mx + b...ur slope will be in the m position and ur y int will be in the b position
examples : slope = 2 , (1,3)....x = 1 and y = 3
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 2
(1,3)...x = 1 and y = 3
now we sub and find b, the y int
3 = 2(1) + b
3 = 2 + b
3 - 2 = b
1 = b
so in slope intercept form, ur equation is : y = 2x + 1
================
another example : slope = 3 , (-2,-4)
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
(-2,-4)...x = -2 and y = -4
now sub and find b, the y int
-4 = 3(-2) + b
-4 = - 6 + b
-4 + 6 = b
2 = b
so ur equation is : y = 3x + 2
