Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Use the given coordinate points to find the slope

m= $\frac{10-4}{8-(-2)}$ m= $\frac{3}{5}$

2) plug the slope into slope-intercept form

y= $\frac{3}{5}$ x+b

3) choose one point to use to plug into the equation to solve for b

4= $\frac{3}{5}$ (-2)+b

4) solve for b.

b= $\frac{26}{3}$

5) substitute the value for b into equation from step 2

y= $\frac{3}{5}$ x+ $\frac{26}{3}$

Alchen [17]

The rate a computer works is 1/time. Working together, you add the rates.
Let new computer be x, old computer be y.
x = y - 7

$\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{13} \\ \\ \frac{1}{y-7}+\frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{13} \\ \\ \frac{2y-7}{y(y-7)} = \frac{1}{13} \\ \\ y(y-7) = 13(2y-7) \\ \\ y^2-33y+91 = 0 \\ \\ y = 29.96 \\ \\ x = y-7 = 29.96-7 = 22.96$
Rounded to nearest tenth gives:
x = 23 hours

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Belinda's score is 32 strokes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the score of John be "x" and Belinda be "y".

It is given that, in the game of golf, John's score was 10 less than two times Belinda's score.

Also, John's score is 54 strokes.

The above equation can be written as ;

$x = 2(y) -10$
