Given:
540 miles to college
average rate of 45 miles per hour
How many hours will it take him to get 3/4 of the way there?
540 miles * 3/4 = (540 * 3) / 4 = 1620/4 = 405 miles
405 miles / 45 mph = 9 hours.
It would take Tameron 9 hours to travel 3/4 of the way there.
M= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Plug in the points. (2,3) (9,7)
m= (7-3)/(9-2)
m= 4/7
Slope= 4/7
I hope this helps!

For a system of equations such as this, add both of the equations together. The d values will cancel each other out, making 2e=-4. This means that e=-2. If you plug this into one of the equations, you will have d + (-2) = 1. Isolate the variable by adding -2 to both sides: d=3. Written in the format described above (d,e), your answer is (3, -2).
