An athlete runs two miles in 13.5 minutes. How many minutes is this per mile?

6.75 minutes / mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Time: 13.5 minutes

distance: 2 miles

rate: ?

You want the units to be minutes / mile. That's not the usual units for a rate. You have to be careful how you set this up.

13.5 minutes

2 miles

13.5 /2 = 6.75 minutes / mile = 6 minutes 45 seconds / mile

an

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )
