Any and all help would be appreciated!
1 answer:
The way we can find out the unit rate (also known as the <em><u>SLOPE</u></em>) is by using the table as coordinates!
The slope formula is
With the table, the TIME column can be "x"
The DISTANCE column can be "y"
____________________________
As coordinates, it would look like...
(0,0)
(20, 25)
(30, 37.5) and so on!
_____________________________
All we need to do now is use 2 of these coordinates and plug them into the slope formula in their correct places to find the unit rate!
Example:
solve!
= 12.5/10 ⇒ 1.25 ( or 5/4 in fraction form)

The solution of the linear equations will be ( -2, 4).
<h3>What is an equation?</h3>It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.
Given equations are:-
- 2x +3y = 8 and 3x+y= -2
Solving the equations by elimination method:-
2x +3y = 8
3x+y= -2
Multiply the second equation by 3 and subtract from the first equation.
2x +3y = 8
-9x -3y = 6
----------------
-7x = 14
x = -2
Out of the value of x in any one equation, we will get the value of y.
3x+y= -2
3 ( -2) + y = -2
-6 + y = -2
y = 4
The graph of the equations is also attached with the answer below.
Therefore the solution of the linear equations will be ( -2, 4).
