Write an equation of a line through (2,7.5) with an x-intercept of -1

Mathematics
1 answer:
Illusion [34]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<h2>y = (5/2)x + 5/2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the given x-intercept are (-1, 0).

As we move to the right from (-1, 0) to (2. 7.5), x increases by 3 and y by 7.5.

Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 7.5 / 3, or 75 / 30, or 5/2.

Thus, starting from y = mx + b, we have:

7.5 = (5/2)(2) + b, or

7.5 = 5 + b

Thus, b = 2.5, and the equation is

y = (5/2)x + 5/2

check:  Is 7.5 = (5/2)(2) + 5/2 true?

             Is 7.5 = 5 + 5/2 true?  YES

Kaitlyn drove 360 miles in 9 hours. If she continues driving at the same speed, how far will she have driven in 11 hours?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

440 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to calculate the number of miles per hour. To do this, take the total number of miles traveled and divide it by the number of hours it took. 360/9=40. This means Kaitlyn drove at 40 miles per hour. Then, we need to multiply 40 by 11 to figure out the number of miles she drove in 11 hours because her speed stayed the same. 40*11=440. This means Kaitlyn will have driven 440 miles in 11 hours.

Hope this helps! :)
