Answer:

y = -5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The slope m = -5 and point (2, -9)

Use point slope form:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where (x₁, y₁) is the given point

So the equation is:

y - (-9) = -5(x - 2)
y + 9 = -5x + 10
y = -5x + 1

For a rectangle, A = LW.

A = (3x + 2)(x - 4)

A = 3x^2 - 12x + 2x - 8

A = 3x^2 -10x - 8

Mike jogged a total distance of 5 1/3 miles during the months of October and November. If Mike only jogger 1/6 mile every day, W

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If he jogged $x$ miles every day, and he jogged a total distance of $y$ miles, then he runs for $y/x$ days. This is an extension of the $d=rt$ or distance equals rate times time.

We plug in for y and x to get that he runs for $5~1/3~~/~~1/6$ .

So, the answer is $\boxed{D}$ and we're done!

Solve for b the problem is a=1/3BH

egoroff_w [7]

A = 1/3 * b * h....divide both sides by 1/3h
a / (1/3h) = b
3a / h = b <===
