Subtract the faster speed:

721.6 - 8.4 = 713.2

Divide by 2 trains:

713.2/2 = 356.6

The slower train is going 356.6 miles per hour.

The faster train is going 356.6 + 8.4 = 365 miles per hour.

What is the slope of the following graph? (write your answer as a fraction unless divided by 1. Do not use spaces in your answer

alexira [117]

The slope of the graph is 4/5

<h3>How to determine the slope</h3>

Using the formula

Slope = Δ y-axis / Δ x- axis

y2 = -4

y1 = 0

x2 = -5

x1 = 0

Slope = $\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

Substitute the values into the formula

<em>Slope = </em> $\frac{-4 - 0}{- 5 - 0}$

Slope = $\frac{-4}{-5}$

Slope = $\frac{4}{5}$

Therefore, the slope of the graph is 4/5

Write a linear equation from the ordered pair (-2,8)

OlgaM077 [116]

The equation of a line that goes through the point (x1,y1) and has a slope of m is
y-y1=m(x-x1)

so, given the point (-2,8)
x1=-2
y1=8

y-8=m(x-(-2))
y-8=m(x+2)
the equation is y-8=m(x+2) where m is the slope
or you could rewrite it to get y=mx+2m+8
