Answer:

y = 3 + 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, we are given two values which are the initial height of the plant and its growth height. Then we are given a variable which is the number of months (x) that are unknown for us. The growth height needs to be multiplied by the number of months to know how much it has grown in that time period. Then we add this value to the initial height of the plant to calculate the total height (y) of the plant after x number of months. We can apply this information to form the following equation in slope-intercept form.

y = 3 + 2x

-2x - 18 = 611-2x) + 4x
Serhud [2]

Answer:

x = (-629)/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

-2 x - 18 = 4 x - 2 x + 611

4 x - 2 x = 2 x:

-2 x - 18 = 2 x + 611

Subtract 2 x from both sides:

(-2 x - 2 x) - 18 = (2 x - 2 x) + 611

-2 x - 2 x = -4 x:

-4 x - 18 = (2 x - 2 x) + 611

2 x - 2 x = 0:

-4 x - 18 = 611

Add 18 to both sides:

(18 - 18) - 4 x = 18 + 611

18 - 18 = 0:

-4 x = 611 + 18

611 + 18 = 629:

-4 x = 629

Divide both sides of -4 x = 629 by -4:

(-4 x)/(-4) = 629/(-4)

(-4)/(-4) = 1:

x = 629/(-4)

Multiply numerator and denominator of 629/(-4) by -1:

Answer: x = (-629)/4

The time t required to drive a certain distance varies inversely with the speed r. If it takes 2 hours to drive the distance at
tia_tia [17]

We are given:

The time t required to drive a certain distance varies inversely with the speed r.

According to the question t is inversely proportional to speed(r).

let us say distance (d) is constant of proportionality,

So the equation becomes,

t=\frac{d}{r}

Now from the question, we are given it takes 2 hours to drive the distance at 67 miles per hour, so plugging these in the above equation,

2=\frac{d}{67}

d=134 miles.

Now we have to find how long will it take to drive the same distance that is 134 miles at 55 miles per hour

so plugging the values, we have,

t=\frac{134}{55}

t=2.436

So the time taken will be around 2.5 hours.

Answer :  It will take about 2.5 hours to drive the same distance at 55 miles per hour. Option C. About 2.5 hours.
