Let 'x' represent the total distance from point A to point B
During the first hour he gets 0.25 of the way there: 0.25x
During the second hour he covers an additional 0.2 of the distance: 0.2x
During the third hour, he covers 0.3 of the distance: 0.3x
The total distance the biker traveled is:
0.25x + 0.2x + 0.3x = (0.25 + 0.2 + 0.3)x = 0.75x
The biker has: x - 0.75x = (1 - 0.75)x = 0.25x of the total distance left to go.
The answer is simple. First you subtract 4 from each side to get xis lesss than or equal to 4
Solve for positive 72 and separate the negative part as
The rest of calculation is same..
Point slope form
y-y1=m(x-x1)
slope=m
a point is (x1,y1)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(-6,4) and (2,0)
slope=(0-4)/(2-(-6))=-4/(2+6)=-4/8=-1/2
a point is (-6,4)
x1=-6
y1=4
y-4=-1/2(x+6)
