Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
164.7/8.6 = 19.15
about 20 miles per gallon
<span>1st train DATA:
rate = 50 mph ; time = x hrs ; distance = rt = 50x miles
2nd train DATA:
rate = 55 mph ; time = (x-(1/2)) hrs ; distance = rt = 55(x-(1/2)) miles
Equation:
distance = distance
50x = 55(x-(1/2)
50x = 55x - (55/2)
-5x = -55/2
x = 11/2
x = 5 1/2 hrs (time at which the 2nd train overtakes the 1st train)

Answer:
Slope is -3, y-intercept is 30
Step-by-step explanation:
You take the two points (11,-3) and (7,9), plug them into the formula y2-y1/x2-x2=m. Now, you have 9-(-3)/7-11 which gives you 12/-4, 12/-4 can be simplified into -3 which is your slope. To find y-intercept you must use the formula y=mx+b. Plug -3, your slope, into m, and any of the coordinates on your line into the y and x; I used (7,9). You solve for b from 9=-3*7+b. -3*7 gives you -21, now you have 9=-21+b, to get b by itself, you add 21 to both sides, 30=b. B is your y-intercept.
