Answer:

y = 4/3x-7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=Mx+b; m=slope & b= y intercept

y=-4/3x+b

Now substitute x & y with the point given

(-9)=-4/3(5)+b

-9= -20/3+b

+20/3 +20/3

-7/3=b

Now substitute this into the original equation

y = 4/3x-7/3

A ferry departs from a port along the Sands River at 10:00 am. The ferry travels at a speed of 15 mph in still water and returns

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Speed of river's current = 5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'd' be the distance covered

Let x be the speed of the rivers current

Speed upstream = 15-x

speed downstream = 15+x

Time = distance / speed

time upstream = $\frac{d}{15-x}$

time downstream = $\frac{d}{15+x}$

the ferry trip upstream takes twice as long as its return trip downstream

$\frac{d}{15-x}$ = $\frac{2d}{15+x}$

divide both sides by d

$\frac{1}{15-x}$ = $\frac{2}{15+x}$

cross multiply

$15+x= 2(15-x)$

$15+x= 30-2x$

Add 2x on both sideds

$15+3x= 30$

subtract 15 from both sides and divide by 3

$3x=15$

x=5

Speed of river's current = 5 mph
