HELP ME PLS A Coast Guard boat is trying to reach a sailboat. Which are the coordinates of the location of the sailboat?

it's equivalent, so we can say that its equal.

let's call the denominator x and the numerador is 18 less then denominator, x - 18.

multiply

2.x = 5.(x - 18)

2x = 5x - 90

90 = 5x - 2x

90 = 3x

x = 90/3

x = 30

so:

let

step

find the slope of the line ab

we know that

the formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

substitute the values

step

find the equation of the line ab with the slope m and point a

we know that

the equation of the line in the slope-point form is equal to

substitute the values

convert to function form

let

therefore

the answer is the option
