(4,3) is a solution for y=3x-9 but not y=1/2+1.
Answer:
Let d = the one-way trip
Write a time equation: time = dist/speed
time out + time back = 4.5 hrs
d/80 + d/100 = 4.5
Multiply by 400 to clear the denominators
400*d/80 + 400*d/100 = 400(4.5)
Cancel the denominators
5d + 4d = 1800
d = 1800/9
d = 200 miles max distance
B. Upside Down V- Shaped
When you draw it out, it looks like a upside down V.
Answer:
y -15 = -3(x +2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope will be ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (-18 -15)/(9 -(-2)) = -33/11 = -3
Point-slope form is ...
y -y1 = m(x -x1) . . . . . line with slope m through point (x1, y1)
Using the first point, the equation is ...
y -15 = -3(x +2)
