Answer:
y = 2x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
to do this problem, we will use the following formula to find the slope of the line
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(1,5) (2,7)
(7 - 5) / (2 - 1)
2 / 1
2 = m
next, we will substitute the slope and one of the points into the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) and solve for b to find the y-intercept
y = mx + b
7 = (5)(2) + b
7 = 10 + b
-3 = b
finally, we put it all together into one equation
y = 2x - 3
Harry can rake the leaves in the yard 8 hours faster than his little brother Jimmy can.
<span>If they join to work together they can complete the job in 3 hours. </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x - 8) = 1/3 </span>
<span>3(x - 8) + 3x = x(x - 8) </span>
<span>x^2 - 14x + 24 = 0 </span>
<span>(x - 12)(x - 2) = 0 </span>
<span>Solutions: </span>
<span>x = 2 </span>
<span>x = 12 </span>
<span>Jimmy can complete the job on his own in 12 hours.</span>
