A: From the graph, car B was traveling faster.
Because the line of car B is more steep than the line of car A.
B:
The lines cross at (2,80), this means that the two cars were traveling at the same distance (80 miles) at the same time (2 hours).
C:
Since the line passes through the points (0,0) and (2,80)
So the unit rate or slope is 40 mph.
The distance which car A traveled in the first four hours = 4x40= 160 mph
Let one piece of the rope be x
Let the other piece of rope be x + 5
These two pieces put together will make 20 feet.
So we say:
x + (x +5) = 20
What is x? We expand the equation.
x + x + 5 = 20
x + x = 20 - 5
2x = 15
x = 7.5
The shorter piece is therefore 7.5 feet.
The longer piece is 7.5 + 5 = 12.5 feet.
Answer:
that will be .... x=2,y=1 so that will be (2,1)
