Answer:

y= 3/2x -14

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to solve this problem is y- y1 = m(x-x1), so plug in the coordinates according to the formula: y-(-8)= m(x-4). Then, find the reciprocal of the slope, which is 3/2. Plug 3/2 to where the slope belongs: y+8=3/2(x-4). Calculate to solve the rest: y =3/2x -14

Your bedroom ceiling if 10 feet high and is two-thirds as high as the living room ceiling. Write and solve an equation to find t

timurjin [86]

Ht of ceiling = 10 ft which is two-thirds of living rm ceiling
Ht of living rm ceiling = 2/3x = 10 ft
2/3h = 10 ft
2/3h times 3/2 to solve for h = 10 times 3/2
h = 30/2
h = 15 ft

I traveled 3920 miles and 7 hours on an airplane how many miles do I travel in 1 hour

valentinak56 [21]

Hi , the answer is 600 , because 3920 miles divided by 420 minutes[7hours] equals to 9.33 and 9.33 times 60 minutes[1 hour] equals to 559.8 , which is an approximate of 600.
