Answer:
y = 11/20x -50
Step-by-step explanation:
100y−39,000=55(x−800)
Distribute
100y−39,000=55x−44000
Add 39000 to each side
100y−39,000+39000=55x−44000+39000
100y = 55x -5000
Divide each side by 100
100y/100 = 55x/100 - 5000/100
y = 11/20x -50
This is slope intercept form
where 11/20 is the slope and -50 is the y intercept
Combine like terms. The 5x is grouped to the 8x and the -7 isgrouped with the -55.
This means 5x + 8x = 13x and -7 - 55 = -62
The new expression is 13x - 62. We can't find the exact value of x because the expression wasn't set equal to anything.
Time = distance/speed
So all you have to do is plug the numbers in and you get the answer
Time = 1,250 kilometres/150 kilometres per hour
Time = 8.333 hours
