Answer:

23.3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

- convert 1hour = 60minutes

14 miles per 1 hour , is the same as

14 miles per 60 minutes

-write an equivalent fraction to keep the proportion

14 miles/60 minutes = ? miles / 100 minutes

-cross multiply , and divide by 60

? = (14*100) / 60 = 23. 3333333...

-round to 1 decimal place

23.3 miles

Answer: $5x-3y=44$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that , the equation of a line that passes through (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :_

$(y-b)=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}(x-a)$

Standard form of equation of line = $Ax+By=C$

Given points = (7, -3) and (4, -8)

Then, the equation of a line that passes through the points . (7, -3) and (4, -8) is given by -

$(y-(-3))=\dfrac{-8-(-3)}{4-7}(x-7)$

$(y+3)=\dfrac{-8+3}{-3}(x-7)$ [∵ (-)(-)=(+)]

$(y+3)=\dfrac{-5}{-3}(x-7)$

$(y+3)=\dfrac{5}{3}(x-7)$

$3(y+3)=5(x-7)$

$3y+9=5x-35$

$9+35=5x-3y$

$44=5x-3y$

Or $5x-3y=44$

Hence, the required equation :- $5x-3y=44$
