if a van travels 180 miles / 12 gallons, it needs one gallon for every 15 miles.

285 miles / 15 = 19 gallons

The van will need 19 gallons to travel 285 miles.

if a van travels 180 miles / 12 gallons, it travels 15 miles / gallon (simply divide 180 / 12)

285 miles / 15 = 19 gallons

The van will need 19 gallons to travel 285 miles.

Find the solution by elimination method. <br>Please Help.

love history [14]

Answer:

I'm newbie here

Step-by-step explanation:

Elimination Method.

4x + 6/y = 15 → step 1

6x - 8/y = 14 → step 2

so,

4x + 6/y = 15 |×6|

6x - 8/y = 14 |×4|

24x + 6/y(6) = 90

24x - 8/y(4) = 56

24x + 36/y = 90

24x - 32/y = 56

____________ _

68/y = 34

68 = 34y

34y = 68

y = 2

subsitution y = 2 to..

4x + 6/y = 15

4x + 6/2 = 15

4x + 3 = 15

4x = 12

x = 3

So, for x is 3, and for y is 2

Answer:

1. $\frac{3}{8}$

2. $\frac{1}{4}$

3a. $-\frac{1}{4}$

3b. 3

3c. $-\frac{4}{5}$

4. $m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

Rises 6 inches for every horizontal change of 16 inches

Slope = rise/run

Slope = 6/16

Slope = 3/8

Rises 3 feet for every horizontal change of 12 feet

Slope = rise/run

Slope = 3/12

Slope = 1/4

3a.

$m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}$

$m = \frac{3-2}{-2-2}$

$m = \frac{1}{-4}$

$m = -\frac{1}{4}$

3b.

$m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\$

$m = \frac{-1 - 2}{-1-0}$

$m = \frac{-3}{-1}$

$m = 3$

3c.

$m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\$

$m = \frac{1 - (-3)}{-1-4}\\$

$m = \frac{4}{-5}\\$

$m = -\frac{4}{5}$

$m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\$
