Answer:
Airplane #1 equation: y=5/13x+42/13
Airplane #2 equation: y=1/3x+14
Step-by-step explanation:
So to find the slope of each airplane, you use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1. That means, for airplane#1 the equation will be 9-4/15-2. Simplify this and get 5/13. Then, for airplane#2, the equation will be 12-9/6-15. Simplify this and get 3/-9 and divide each side by 3 to get 1/-3 or -1/3. Next, use point slope formula to find the system of linear equations. Point slope formula is y-y1=m(x-x1). M is the slope. Use any point from the line. In this case, I will use (2,4). Tat means the first airplane's equation would be y-4=5/13(x-2). Then y-4=5/13x-10/13. Then, convert four into a fraction with a denominator of 13. This means, you have to multiply 4 by 13 to get 52/13. Add 52/13 to -10/13 to get 42/13. That means the first equation will be y=5/13x+42/13. The second equation point will be (6,12). This means the equation will be y-12=-1/3(x-6). Simplify this to get y-12=-1/3x+2. Simplify this to get y=1/3x+14. Therefore, Airplane#1 equation will be y=5/13x+42/13 and airplane #2 equation will be y=1/3x+14.
Hope this helps
Answer:
We have the system of equations:
y=1/3x+5
y=2/3x+5
To solve it graphically, we need to graph both lines and see in which point the lines intersect.
You can see the graph below, and you can see that the lines intersect in the point (0, 5)
Now, we can also solve this analytically.
We can use the fact that for the solution, we need y = y.
Then we can write:
(1/3)*x + 5 = (2/3)*x + 5
First, we can subtract 5 in both equations to get:
(1/3)*x = (2/3)*x
This only has a solution when x = 0.
Replacing x = 0 in one of the equations, we get:
y = (1/3)*0 + 5 = 5
Then the solution is x = 0, and y = 5, as we already could see in the graph.
To find the answer we simply have to find 12% of 58,800. So to do that, we can multiply it by .12
58,800 • .12 = 7,056
So $7,056 is earned per year
Answer:
The y intercept is (0,-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the y intercept, set x = 0 and solve for y
-4x -2y = 16
-4(0) -2y =16
-2y = 16
Divide by -2
-2y/-2 = 16/-2
y = -8
The y intercept is (0,-8)
Answer:
8.04672 kilometers
1 mile = 1.06 km
5 miles = 8.04 ( or 8.04672)
