Emily drove 3/7 of the total distance and holly drove the rest which explains that holly drove 4/7 of the whole distance.
if 4 parts of the distance equals 24 miles, then 1 part would be 24/4 is 6.
since emily drove 3 parts of the whole distance, it is 6 × 3 = 18 miles.
travelling time of emily = 18/45 = 0.4 hr
travelling time of holly = 24/54 = 0.4 hr
--> total traveling time = 0.8 hr
i hope it is right
Answer:
y = -140
Step-by-step explanation:
Y varies directly with x
y = kx
We know y = -20 when x =2, we can solve for k
-20 = k*2
Divide each side by 2
-20/2= 2k/2
-10 =k
y = -10x
Now we want to find y when x = 14
y = -10 *14
y = -140
To solve this problem, we are going to set up an equation. Let the number that we are trying to find be represented by the variable x. If we plug in the numbers that we know, we get the following equation:
3x/4 = 24
To simplify this equation, we need to multiply both sides by 4, to begin getting the x alone on the left side of the equation.
3x = 96
Finally, we need to divide both sides by 3, to get rid of the coefficient that is being multiplied to x.
x = 32
Therefore, the number that you are trying to find is 32.
X intercept would mean plug in 0 for Y.
Then finding the y intercept would mean X is 0. Your answer will be 69420
