Answer:
It is more efficient to use order of operations because with the distributive property, you would have to multiply four times and add once (5 things to do), whereas with order of operations, you have to add twice and multiply twice (4 things to do).
Step-by-step explanation:
A= there are "4"one fourths in one hour and he hikes 2 miles every hour
B= 1, 1 1/2, 2, 4
C= it going to be 1/3 mile for every 1/6hour and she hikes 2 miles every hour.
D= 2/3, 1, 2, 4
8 divided by 1/4 (25%) is 2. Therefor, it would be 10 meters.
While it's pretty obvious to most of us that
-13x=90-2y
-6x=48-2y
is a system of linear equations, it'd be well to include that info plus the instructions "solve this system of linear equations."
Subtract the 2nd equation from the first:
-13x=90-2y
+6x=-48+2y
-----------------------
-7x = 42. Then x = -42/7, or x = 6.
Now subst. 6 for x in either one of the given equations. Suppose we use the 2nd equation:
-6x=48-2y
Then -6(6)=48-2y, or -36 = 48 - 2y, or 2y = 48+ 36 = 84. Then y = 42.
The solution is (6, 42).
D is the answer because 13 goes into 5 twice and 3 Is left over multiply that by two to get 6/10 than that it's equivalent to .6 so it is 2.6
