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

stepladder [879]
X/2+1/3=x/3+1/2
x/2=x/3+1/2-1/3
x/2 - x/3 = 3/6 - 2/6
x/2 - x/3 = 1/6
3x/6 - 2x/6 = 1/6
x/6 = 1/6
x = 1/6 * 6

x = 1
