Answer:
x = -2, y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
x-7y=-9---------------------equation 1
-x+8y=10-------------------equation 2
From equation 1, make x the subject of formula
x=7y-9----------------------equation 3
substituting x=7y-9 in equation 2,
-(7y-9)+8y=10
Expanding bracket
-7y+9+8y=10
Collecting like terms
8y-7y=10-9
y=1
substituting y=1 in 3
x=7(1)-9
x=7-9
x=-2
The answer is the first 1 !!
Here is how we see if it is true!
If Clayton drives 60 miles per hour, that means, <u>t</u>hat after one hour has passed, they should have traveled 60 miles!
If we look at the number of hours that have passed between 1:30 and 4:30, it is 3 hours.
If someone travels 60 miles every hour that has passed, and they traveled for 3 hours. To find how far they have traveled we just need to multiply 60 miles by 3 hours!
Let's solve that!
60 × 3 = 180 miles!
Clayton started driving at 1:30 pm and went 60 miles per hour.
Answer:
Slope: 2
y = 2x + 50
Step-by-Step Solution:
Slope: rise/run = 40/20 = 4/2 = 2
y = mx + b
m= slope = 2
b= y-intercept = 50
y = 2x + 50
