How many solutions does the system x-3y = -8 x + 3y =8

Mathematics

X - 3y = -8
x + 3y = 8
---------------    Add the equations
2x =  =
x = 0

Plug zero back in to either equation and solve for y.
x - 3y = -8
0 - 3y = -8
-3y = -8
divide both sides by -3
y = 8/3

(0, 8/3)

Solve this absolute value equation and show all work.
vitfil [10]
I was confused at first until I realized that you'd shared not one, not two, but three questions in one post.  would you please post just one question at a time to avoid this.

I'll focus on your second question only:  Solve <span>3 + |2x - 4| = 15.

Subtr. 3 from both sides.  Result:  |2x - 4| = 12

Divide all terms by 2, to reduce:    |x - 2| = 6

Case 1:  x-2 is already +, so we don't need |    |:

                       x - 2 = 6    =>   x = 8 (first answer)

Case 2:  x-2 is negative, so |2x-4| = -(2x-4) = 6

             Then   -2x + 8 = 6.  Subtr. 8 from both sides:   -2x = -2

               Div both sides by -2:  x = 1 (second answer)

Be sure to check these results by subst. them into the original equation.

Please post your other questions separately.  Thanks and good luck!

06. Kristen can run at 15km/hr and walk at 5 km/hr. She completed a 42 km marathon in 4 hours. What distance did Kristen run dur
Mrac [35]
Let x be the time she ran and y be the time she walked 

then distance ran =  25x and distance walked = 5y 

so 15x + 5y = 42

and x + y = 4

* second equn. by -5:-

-5x - 5y = -20

add this to the first equn:0

10x = 22
x = 2.2

distance she ran = 2.2 * 15  =  33 km
