Answer:
It took Markus half an hour to drive home from work. He averaged 34 miles per hour. How far does Markus live from his work?
Solution
We are given that it takes 1/2 an hour for the trip. This is a time:
t = 1/2
We are given that he averages 34 miles per hour. This is a rate:
r = 34
We are asked how few he has traveled. This is a distance. We use the d=rt equation:
d = rt
= (34)(1/2)
= 17
Markus lives 17 miles from work.

Exercise 1
The current along the beach is moving towards the south at 1.5 miles per hour. If a piece of debris is placed into the water, how far will the current take it in 6 hours?
Step-by-step explanation:
You go down to the negative number x is first and then you go to the positive number which is y
6 1/4 - 5 1/2=
6 1/4 - 5 2/4= 3/4
The answer is 3/4.
Answer:
The equation of this line would be y = 3x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this equation we must first find the slope of the original line. The original slope (the coefficient of x) is 3, which means the new slope will also be 3 because parallel lines have the same slope. Now, we can use this slope along with the point in point-slope form to find the equation of the line.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y + 7 = 3(x + 2)
y + 7 = 3x + 6
y = 3x - 1
