Answer:

Horizontal line: y=-5

Vertical line: x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have to determine the equations for the horizontal and vertical lines passing through the point (4, -5).

To determine the equation for the horizontal line passing through the point (4, -5), we must observe that the horizontal line will always have the same y-value regardless of the x-value.

Therefore, the equation of the horizontal line passing through the point (4, -5) will be: y=-5

To determine the equation for the vertical line passing through the point (4, -5), we must observe that the vertical line will always have the same x-value regardless of the y-value.

Therefore, the equation of the vertical line passing through the point (4, -5) will be: x=4

Hence:

Horizontal line: y=-5

Vertical line: x = 4

Find the duration
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time : 9:00am to 10:15am
Duration: 1hour 15 mins or 1.25hours

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find difference in distance travelled between the two cyclists.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Difference in speed = 6km/h
1 hour = 6 km
1.25 hours = 7.5km

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the distance the cyclist traveled
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
42.5 - 7.5 = 35km
35km ÷ 2 = 17.5km

The slower cyclist traveled 17.5 km in the 1.25 hours

17.5 + 7.5 = 25 km

The faster cyclist traveled 25km in the 1.25 hours

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the slower cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 17.5 km
1 hour = 17.25 ÷ 1.25
1 hour = 14km

The cyclist was traveling at 14km/h

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the faster cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 25km
1 hour = 25 ÷ 1.25
1hour = 20 km

The cyclist was traveling at 20km/hour

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The speed were 14km/h and 20 km/h

Assuming it’s out of 100 it would 70 games they have won, but if it provides a number you will need to provide that for the correct answer.

What is the difference of the fractions? Use the number line and equivalent fractions to help find the answer.

ipn [44]

The difference of the fraction is $\mathbf{ -\dfrac{3}{4}}$ by using equivalent expressions.

<h3>What is a number line?</h3>

A number line is a diagrammatic representation of real numbers on the graduated line. It ranges from negative axis to positive axis with 0 being the center position.

A sketch showing the representation of the difference in the mixed fractions can be seen in the image attached below.

Using equivalent expressions to determine the difference between the mixed fractions, we have;

$\mathbf{ = -2\frac{1}{2} - (-1\dfrac{3}{4}) }$
