Y=5/2x+5 because the slope is 5/2 and the y-intercept is 5
The given phrase is
6 more than y .
And we have to put this in algebraic form .
For the phrase "more than", we use addition sign and for the phrase "less than", we use subtraction sign .
So for the given phrase " 6 more than y " , the required algebraic expression is
And that's the answer.
So, he runs 1.5 then adds 0.5 every day,
1.5
(1.5+0.5)+1.5=x
(2.0+0.5)+x=z
2.5+0.5+z=y
etc.
Why, they want to know the total distance he runs, so thats why you add x,y,z to the end, and you add 2.0+0.5 because he adds 0.5 every dat Plus the other day's miles jogged
7*3/10 = 2.1
1*3/4 = 0.75
2.1 + 0.75 = 2.85
hope this helps :)
