Answer:
y = 4 and x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Step by step explanation in the pic. Atleast the way I did it.
Set up the following equation for this segment:
x is segment AB's length, and 3x is segment BC's length. 20 is segment AC's length.
Combine like terms:
Divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself:
x will equal 5.
Plug this value into the values for both segments:
Segment AB:
Segment AB is 5 inches long.
Segment BC:
Segment BC is 15 inches long.
For company a it would be at the 8th hour and they would be 210 and for company b it would be at the 7th hour
<span>going downstream -
t = 14/(2 + v)
going upstream -
t = 7/(2 - v)
14/(2 + v) = 7/(2 - v)
(2 + v)/2 = 2 - v
v = 2/3km/h</span><span>

Answer:
y=mx+b is the formula. So -8=-3x+5 would be the answer..
since (x,y) just substitute these numbers you have it into the formulas... Take y from (5,-8) and place it into y=mx+b. Next take the slope which is -3. And then since its a postive number we <em>add</em> are x from (x,y). -8=-3x+5. We also add x next to the slope (-3) becuase we are trying to solve for x. And we <em>always</em> put it next to the slope. Hope this helps!
