2(x+3)= 3x-1
2x+6=3x-1
X=7
Therefore
YM = 7+3= 10
And by definition of midpoint YM=MZ so MZ=10
B is equal to 1/5. Hope I was able to help
Answer:
y = -5/4x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the line we are supposed to find is parallel to y = -5/4x - 5 that means they are going to have the same slope. The line we are looking for is of the following type: y = -5/4 x + b
Since it passes through the point (-8,4):
4 = -5/4 * (-8) + b <=>
4 = -2 + b <=>
4 + 2 = b <=>
b = 6
Hence the line is going to be: y = -5/4x + 6
For : " 2 magazines weigh 7/8 pounds what is the unit rate for pounds per magazine " The answer is : Each magazine weighs an overall total of 3.5/8 pounds.
Find the velocity first, the "slope".
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(95.5-53)/(4-2)
m=21.25 ? Your equations are wrong, I'll double check with another set of points...
m=(350.5-308)/(16-14)
m=21.25 LOL, yep none of your lines has the correct slope.
Anyway...
y=21.25x+b, using any point we can solve for the y-intercept, or "b", (2, 53)
53=21.25(2)+b
53=42.5+b
10.5=b so the distance to the lighthouse as a function of time is:
y=21.25x+10.5
So essentially, you should fire your teacher or burn that book you are using :)
