Solve by the addition method: 2x-5y=18 ,3x+4y=4

1 answer:

8 0

2 x - 5 y = 18 / * 4
3 x + 4 y = 4 / * 5 ( we will use the addition method )
--------------------------
8 x - 20 y = 72
+
15 x + 20 y = 20
-----------------------
23 x = 92
x = 92 : 23
x = 4
8 - 5 y = 18
- 5 y = 18 - 8
- 5 y = 10
y = 10 : ( - 5 )
y = - 2
Answer:
( x, y ) = ( 4, - 2 )

mia drove her car at a rate of 60 mph from her home to los angeles. her mother, katrina, made the same trip at a rate of 80 mph,

Ad libitum [116K]

So if Katrina did 80mph and

Mia did 60mph

Lets say the destination is 90 miles away that would take 1hr 30minsfor Mia and

1hr 10mins for Katrina. so that's only a gap of 20minutes not half an hour.

So if the destination was 120miles away it would take Mia 2 hours and Katrina 1hour 30mins that is a gap of 30mins.
