Answer:

y = 18x + 10

slope = 18

y-intercept = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation given in the problem is linear and can be represented using slope-intercept form of a linear equation: y = mx + b, where 'm' is equal to the slope, 'b' is equal to the y-intercept, 'x' is the number of hours and 'y' is the total number of miles.  

Given that Jasmine has already biked 10 miles, her initial value, or y-intercept would be 10.  Since she is now biking at a rate of 18 miles per hour, her rate of change, or slope, would be 18.  

Using these values for 'm' and 'b': y = 18x + 10

Are these parallel, perpendicular, or neither?
Elina [12.6K]
Answer: I think it’s neither

Explanation:

The line is parallel unless the slope is the same and with a different y-intercept

The line are perpendicular unless the one of the slope is the negative reciprocal of the other.

And both equation didn’t meet any of the requirement.

Is Circumference of a circle same as area?​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The circumference of a circle is not the same as the area of the circle because the circumference represents the distance around the circle while the area represents the amount of space within the circle. Hope this helps.
