Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What we know is that A + S = 111. That is, the miles Andre drove plus the miles Scott drove totalled 111 miles. What we also know is that Scott drove quite a bit more than Andre did. Scott drove 7 miles more that ( +7 ) 3 times the number of miles Andrea drove. That looks like this algebraically:
S = 3A + 7
Now we can sub in that value for S to the original equation:
If A + S = 111 and S = 3A + 7, then
A + 3A + 7 = 111 and
4A + 7 = 111 and
4A = 104 so
A = 26 and
S = 3(26) + 7 so
S = 85 miles.
Scott drove 85 miles.
Answer:
The equation in point - slope form of a line that passes through the points (3,-5) and (-8,4) is: y-(-5) = -(9/11) (x-3) or y+5 = -(9/11) (x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
P1=(3,-5)=(x1,y1)→x1=3, y1=-5
P2=(-8,4)=(x2,y2)→x2=-8, y2=4
Equation in Point-Slope Form: y-y1=m(x-x1)
Slope: m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Replacing the known values:
m=[4-(-5)] / (-8-3)
m=(4+5) / (-11)
m=(9) / (-11)
m=-(9/11)
Equation in the point - slope form:
y-(-5) = -(9/11) (x-3)
y+5 = -(9/11) (x-3)
Answer:A,B,E
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear function, of the kind y = mx + b
where x is the number of visit, b is the weight when x = 0, and m is the predicted change of weight for every visit.
m = - 4 ounces / visit, which must be converted to pounds (the negative sign indicates that the change is a decrease)
1 lb = 16 ounces = 4 ounces = 0.25 lb
Then m = - 0.25 lb / visit.
Now, for x = 1, y = 126 => 126 = - 0.25(1) + b => b = 126 + 0.25 = 126.25
Then the function is y = 126.25 - 0.25x
Now round to the nearest tenth:
y = 126.3 - 0.3x
Answer: y = 126.3 - 0.3x
Answer:
y=5/2
