Answer:
The graph in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
we have the equation of the line in point slope form
where
the point is (5,5)
the slope is m=1/5
Remember that
The formula of slope is "rise over run", where the "rise" (means change in y, up or down) and the "run" (means change in x, left or right)
so
<em>To graph the line</em>
1. Plot the point (5,5).
2. From that point, count right 5 units and up 1 unit and plot a second point.
3. Draw a line through the two points
so
The new point is (5+5,5+1) ----> (10,6)
Plot the points (5,5) and (10,6) and draw a line through the two points
The graph in the attached figure
To find the answer set up an equation:
Using this set up we can cross our units of pages since they are on opposite side of the proportion, leaving us with the desired units of hours.
Then divide 400 by 65 which will give us our answer: 6.15 or about 6 hours for Jamie to finish her reading.
