Using proportions, it is found that Ermias is traveling at a rate of 11 mph and Jeremiah at a rate of 19 mph.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Jeremiah travels 8 mph faster than Ermias, hence their velocities are:
x, x + 8
They travel in opposite directions, hence in one hour they are 2x + 8 apart.
In eight hours, the distance is 8(2x + 8), which is of 240 miles, hence:
8(2x +8) = 240
2x + 8 = 30
2x = 22
x = 11.
Then:
- x = 11 + 8 = 19 -> Jeremiah.

Answer:
A. (2, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The ordered pairs represent (x, y). Since you have y =2x, this is the same as ...
(x, 2x)
That is, the second number in the pair needs to be twice the first number in the pair. Since you know your times tables, you know that this is not the case for (1, 0), (10, 5) or (4, 12). Those values of x would give (1, 2), (10, 20), (4, 8).
It is the case that you have (x, 2x) for (2, 4).
The point (2, 4) lies on the graph of y = 2x.
I got 0.3125 (i don’t know if that’s correct, because the question was hard for me to understand)
