Answer:
Piyush walks faster than Laura
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The rate or speed is equal to the slope of the linear equation
<em>Laura</em>
y=3.5x
The slope is 
<em>Piyush</em>
Determine the slope of the line
we have the points
(0,0) and (4,18)
The line represent a direct variation (because passes through the origin)
so
For x=4 h, y=18 mi
substitute
Compare the slopes
therefore
Piyush walks faster than Laura
2 solutions because you have 2 different equations
<span>Since they are playing in the space, gravity or the lack of it plays a huge role here. When the first astronaut throws the second astronaut toward the third one and due to the force exerted they would be moving in the opposite direction and there won't be any catch. Hence the game does not continue after the first throw.</span>
12x^2 = 4/3
x^2 = 1/9
x= +/- 1/3
if you look at delta y over x, you'll notice it always equals 2
i.e (22-2)/10-0 = 20/10 = 2
or (14-2)/6-0 = 12/6 = 2
or even (22-8)/10-3 = 14/7 = 2
This means that m (slope) is 2.
Now as for b. b is the y intercept and that value occurs when x = 0. On the table, when x = 0 y = 2 so b = 2.
y = mx + b becomes
y = 2x + 2
