1 mile = 1760 yards
20 * 1.151 = 23.02
23.02 * 1760 = 40,515.2
40,515.2 / 60 = 675.243~
675.243~ / 60 = 11.2542~
They are traveling 11.25 yards per second
I took the number of knots multiplied by the approximate miles per hour equal
Then multiplied that by the number of yards in a mile, and then divided that by the number of minutes in an hour, and divided that by the number of seconds in a minute. That is how I got the answer, I hope it helps!

Find the equation of the line that passes through the two points (5,-3) and (-5,2). Write your answer in standard form. Help me
lidiya [134]

Answer:

x + 2y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we'll find the slope.

Slope = (2 - (-3)) / (-5 - 5) = 5 / -10 = -1/2

Since we know the slope and a point that belongs to the line, we can write this in point-slope form which will be:

y - 2 = -1/2(x - (-5))      *I used (-5, 2) but it doesn't matter which point you use

y = -1/2(x + 5) + 2

y = -1/2x - 1/2

Standard form:

1/2x + y = -1/2

x + 2y = -1
