We will be using the formulas:
speed=distance/time
time=distance/speed
distance=speed×time
First let's find out Diane's rate of swimming. We can measure this by finding the slope (y/x) of a given coordinate on the graph. One point is (10,15), so you do 15/10=1.5m/s
Now for Rick's rate of swimming, just take a pair of values from the table. 12.5/10=1.25m/s
By the way m/s is metres per second for this
So at a constant speed of 1.5m/s, Diane swam 150m in 150/1.5= 100 seconds, or 1 minute 40 seconds
And at a constant speed of 1.25m/s, Rick swam 150m in 150/1.25= 120 seconds, or 2 minutes.
So the difference between their two times is 20 seconds
Answer:
x = 6 y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>X VALUE</em></u>
3x+11 = 5x-1
12 = 2x
x= 6
<em><u>Y VALUE</u></em>
4y-1 = 19
4y = 20
y = 5
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
add the five to the 43, then divide 48 by 12
Its the second one
Point slope formula is:
Y - (y1) = m ( x - (x1) )
M is the slope so -5/7
( 6 is (x1) , 2 is (y1) )
Y-2=-5/7(x-6)
Answer:
Y=-5x-46.
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 is the slope, so Y=-5x+b. If you plug in (-8,-6), you get -6=40+b, so b has to be -46 for that to be true, I think.
