The equation in y = mx+b form is y = -450x+2745
where,
x = number of hours that have passed by
y = distance to destination in miles
The y intercept is 2745 since this is the initial starting y value, aka the starting distance. Therefore b = 2745.
The slope is -450 or -450/1 since for each hour, the distance goes down by 450. You can think of it as
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
slope = (change in distance)/(change in time)
slope = (-450 miles)/(1 hour)
slope = -450
1000000
Hope this helps! :)
An equivalent expression would be 6(8x - 5)
Answer:
The answer is x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is
25 - 3x = 10
So when we break down this equation, we will have the value of x. Now breaking down the equation and moving variables to the correct positions.
25 - 3x = 10
Moving -3x and 10 to the other sides
25 - 10 = 3x
3x = 25 - 10
3x = 15
Now dividing both sides with 3, we get the following answer
3x/3 = 15/3
x = 5
Breaking down the equation gives us the value of x, i-e 5
