Answer:
They live 285 miles apart
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total distance be x miles
Sean is driving to visit his friend in another state. In the first hour he travels 1/5 of the total distance. This means that he drove x/5 in the first hour. In the second hour he travels 34 miles. That means
Total distance driven in the first and second hour is
(x/5 + 34)miles
He still has 194 miles more to go.
Therefore,
The total distance is the sum of the distance travelled in the first and second hour + the remaining distance.
x = x/5 + 34 + 194
x = x/5 + 228
Cross multiplying
5x = x + 1140
4x = 1140
x = 1140/4 = 285 miles
Answer:
x = 2, y = -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + y = 3
x - y = 3
Adding the 2 equations eliminates y:
3x = 6
x = 2.
Substitute for x in the first equation:
2(2) + y = 3
y = 3 - 4
y = -1.
Check the results by substitution in equation 2:
2 - (-1)
= 2 + 1 = 3 .
Checks OK.
