Question

A drill is used to dig down into the earth. After 2 hours, the drill is 12 meters below the surface. After 5 hours, the drill is 30 meters below the surface. Which equation represents the depth of the drill in meters, y, after ​x hours of drilling?A line passes through the origin and (4, 5). Which point is also on the line?

Answer 1

x(6) = y for the first one

seccond one (2,2.5) for example

Explanation:

first one: so if u plug in 5 for x

5(6)= 30

Answer 2

Answer:
6y = x
Explanation:
All that equation is saying is that for every 1 hour drilled (x), 6 meters (y) are drilled.
y = distance in meters
x = time
12y = 2x
12y/2 = 2x/2
6y = x
30y = 5x
30y/5 = 5x/5
6y = x
