According to the question,
Let,
"n" represent the number of miles semir walked.
"y" represent the number of miles sarah walked.
Now, according to the question,
y = 2n - 5 ........................this is your equation
Also,
the question states, each of them collect $18 in pledges for every miles walked.
Given,
Sarah collected $450
Now,
Using unitary method,
Sarah collects $18 for 1 mile
Sarah collects $1 for (1 / $18) mile
Sarah collects $450 for (1 / 18) * 450 mile
= 25 miles
So, Sarah walks 25 miles.
Now,
Taking equation,
y = 2n - 5
Since, y is the no. of miles sarah walked, we can write 25 in place of "y" So,
(25) = 2n - 5
25 + 5 = 2n
30 = 2n
30 / 2 = n
15 = n
Since, "n" is the no. of miles that semir walked, Semir walked 15 miles.
<em>x = - 2</em>
<em>y = 5</em>
- <em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>
<em>Hi there ! </em>
<em>2x + 9 = y</em>
<em>y = - 4x - 3</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>equality</em>
<em>2x + 9 = - 4x - 3</em>
<em>2x + 4x = - 9 - 3</em>
<em>6x = - 12</em>
<em>x = - 12 : 6</em>
<em>x = - 2</em>
<em>replace x = - 2</em>
<em>2(-2) + 9 = y</em>
<em>- 4 + 9 = y</em>
<em>y = 5</em>
<em>Good luck !</em>

The quotient of the given expression is 1/3
<h3>Difference and division of fractions</h3>
Fractions are written as a ratio of two integers
Given the expression below'
-1/9 / (-1/3)
Change the division to multiplication
-1/9 * -3/1
1/9 * 3/1
1/3
Hence the quotient of the given expression is 1/3
