Answer:X= 1.84. Y= 3.08
Step-by-step explanation:
-9x+8y =8 ............i
-8x+10y= -16........ii
Multiply equation I by 8
Multiply equation ii by 9
-72x+64y = 64 ..... iii
-72x+90y = 144 ..... iv
Subtract iv from iii
-26y = -80
y= 80/26
y= 3.08
Put the value of y in equation i
-9x+8y =8
-9x+8(3.08) = 8
-9x+24.64 = 8
-9x = 8-24.64
-9x=-16.64
Divide both side by 9
-9x/-9 = -16.64/-9
X= 1.84
X=6,-6
3x= 18
X=18/3
X= 6,-6

Answer:
Plane Speed (x) = 378 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation
d = r * t
Givens
With the wind
- d = 1680 miles
- t = 4 hours
- r = x + y
Against the wind
- d = 1680
- t = 5 hours
- r = x - y
Equation
The distances are the same, so you can solve for x in terms of y and then deal with the actual distance.
(x + y)*4 = (x - y)*5 Remove the brackets on both sides
Solution
- 4x + 4y = 5x - 5y Subtract 4x from both sides
- 4y = -4x + 5x - 5y Combine
- 4y = x - 5y Add 5y to both sides
- 5y + 4y = x
- x = 9y
Solution part 2
Now take one of the distance formulas and solve for x first then y.
- (x - y)*5 = 1680 Substitute 9y for x
- (9y - y)*5 = 1680 Subtract on the left
- 8y * 5 = 1680 Multiply on the left
- 40y = 1680 Divide by 40
- y = 1680/40
- y = 42 That's the speed of the wind.
- (x - y)*5 = 1680 Substitute the wind speed for y
- (x - 42)*5 = 1680 Divide both sides by 5
- (x - 42) = 1680 / 5 Do the division on the right
- (x - 42) = 336 Add 42 to both sides.
- x = 336 + 42
- x = 378 mph Plane's speed
