Graham is hiking at an altitude of 14,040 feet and is descending 50 feet each minute. Max is hiking at an altitude of 12,500 feet and is ascending 20 feet each minute. How many minutes will it take graham and max to at the dam altitude

y=mx+

x+14

step-by-step explanation:

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
