<h2>Answer:    y = ¹⁸/₅ x  - 8 </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

         For us to write the equation for this line, we need to (1) find the slope of the line, and (2) use one of the points to write an equation:

        The question gives us two points, (0, -8) and (5, 10), from which we can find the slope and later the equation of the line.

<u>Finding the Slope</u>  

The slope of the line (m) = (y₂ - y₁) ÷ (x₂ - x₁)  

                                          =  (10 - (- 8)) ÷ (5 - 0)

                                          =   ¹⁸/₅  

<u>Finding the Equation</u>

We can now use the point-slope form (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)) to write the equation for this line:

                                  ⇒  y - (-8) =  ¹⁸/₅ (x - 0)

   we could also transform this into the slope-intercept form ( y = mx + c)

                                    since  y - (-8) =  ¹⁸/₅ (x - 0)

                                          ⇒     y + 8 =  ¹⁸/₅ x

                                                 

                                                 ∴  y = ¹⁸/₅ x  - 8

a train makes a trip at 65 mi/h. A plane traveling 130 mi/h makes the same trip in 3 fewer hours. Write and solve an equation to
Rudik [331]

The formula used for calculating the time is:

t = d / v

where t is time, d is distance and v is velocity

 

We know that the difference in the two times is 3 hours, therefore:

d / 65 – d / 130 = 3

 

Calculating for d:

d = 30 / (1/65 – 1/130)

<span>d = 3900 miles</span>

If f(x)=2x+5, then what is f(3)?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

\Large \boxed{f(3)=11}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x+5

For f(3), the input for the function f(x) is 3.

Let x (input) = 3.

f(3)=2(3)+5 \\\\ f(3)=6+5 \\\\ f(3)=11
