Scott would still need to run 12 miles.
20 ÷ 4 = 5
5 + 3 = 8
20 - 8 = 12
Hope this helps! ^v^
X could represent anything 3 & up for A. for b , x could be 1 or greater
Recognize that parallel lines have the same slope. Then:
Method 1: write y = 2x + c and find c from the given information:
y = 2x + c becomes 0 = 2(-2) + c, so that c = 4. Then y = 2x + 4 (answer)
Method 2: Slope is 2 and a point on the line is (-2,0):
Use the point-slope formula: y - 0 = 2(x+2), or y = 2(x+2), or y=2x+4 (ans)
5/100's tortoise's life was spent above ground.
