Bill and Will, starting together, ran a 400-meter race, each running at a constant speed. When Bill crossed the finish line, Will was exactly 20 yards behind Bill. They decide to run the race again, this time Bill starting 20 yards behind the original starting line and each running at his same constant speed as before. This time wins by yards.

it would take 5 hours i think idk i'm not that good at math.can you me with my questions i need asap.

i think u have 12 apples sorry again i don't really know if it correct i'm just tryna hrlp people out.

could u provide us some answer choices or hmm idk maybe a table for us to anser with ? ?

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.
