Answer:
<em>y = (-mi/h)x + b</em>
y = total distance left to cover
-mi/h = speed at wich he is covering ground
b = the total distance to cover from start to finish
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope Intercept form without other variables filled is shown like this with <em>mx </em>being the slope and <em>b </em>being the y intercept
<em>y = mx + b</em>
all we need to do is fill in known variables with hours multiplied by <em>x </em>represented as <em>m</em>...
<em>y = (-mi/h)x + b</em>
note the negative symbol, this shows that the higher that miles an hour (mi/h) aka speed is, the more distance he will cover REDUCING the distance to cover faster meaning the line will slope DOWNWARD
<em>b</em> would be the the total distance that he has started with, meaning on the point where the line crosses the y axis, the number it crosses at will represent how much he has started with
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to write the equation of the line perpendicular to the given line, we first have to know what the slope of the given line is, and there's no way to tell by looking at it in its current form, which is standard. We need to solve that equation for y to determine the slope of that line. Solving for y:
and
3y = 4x - 5 (just change all the signs so our y term isn't negative anymore...yes, you're "allowed" to do that!) and
So we can see now that the slope of this line is 4/3. That means that the perpendicular slope is -3/4. Passing through the given point (3, 5):
* and
and
so
** and, in standard form:
4y = -3x + 29 and
3x + 4y = 29***
* : point-slope form
** : slope-intercept form
*** : standard form
