Let A, M, and w represent Angelo's distance per week, Marc's distance per week, and the number of weeks of this regimen, respectively.
.. A = w +7 . . . . . . . Angelo's distance goes up 1 mile/week each week
.. M = 2w +4 . . . . . Marc's distance goes up 2 miles/week each week
a) A = M
.. w +7 = 2w +4
.. 3 = w . . . . . . . . . . subtract w+4
After 3 weeks Angelo and Marc will be running the same distance.
b) A = M = 3+7 = 2*3+4 = 10
That distance will be 10 miles per week.

This problem can be a little confusing because "miles per week" is a rate, and we're talking about the rate of increase of that rate: 1 or 2 miles per week per week. It might be easier to think of the numbers as "weekly distance", rather than "miles per week".
Step-by-step explanation:
that is totally easy.
in the slope intercept form of a line equation the factor of x is always the slope.
in general
y = ax + b
a = the slope.
so, in our case here
y = 5x - 7
5 is the slope.
and -7 is the y intercept (at what point does the line intercept the y-axis; that is the y value when x = 0).
Answer:
what do you need help with tho lol
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
168 and 12
Step-by-step explanation:
use fractions for this think of it as 14/15x and 1/15x and x is 180 and solve from there
Answer:
D(4) = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the blue graph, find the y value when x =4
the y value is 6 when x=4
D(4) = 6
