The average speed is the distance divided by the time.

Total distance:
12.8 miles + 17.2 miles = 30 miles

Total time:
noon - 9:00 a.m. = 3 hours
6:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m. = 5 hours
Total time = 3 hours + 5 hours = 8 hours

average speed = 30 miles / 8 hours = 3.75 miles per hour

Examine the system of equations. y = 3 2 x − 6, y = −9 2 x + 21 Use substitution to solve the system of equations. What is the v
nadezda [96]

Answer:

<h2>y = -4/9</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations y = 3/2 x − 6, y = −9/2 x + 21, since both expressions are functions of y, we will equate both of them to find the variable x;

3/2 x − 6 = −9/2 x + 21,

Cross multiplying;

3(2x+21) = -9(2x-6)

6x+63 = -18x+54

collecting the like terms;

6x+18x = 54-63

24x = -9

x = -9/24

x = -3/8

To get the value of y, we will substitute x = -3/8 into any of the given equation. Using the first equation;

y = 3/2x-6

y = 3/{2(-3/8)-6}

y = 3/{(-3/4-6)}

y = 3/{(-3-24)/4}

y = 3/(-27/4)

y = 3 * -4/27

y = -4/9

Hence, the value of y is -4/9

Three times a number, X, increased by four is equal to five times the number, x. Which equation can be used to solve for x
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Three times a number x :  3x

Three times a number x increase by 4:  3x +4

Five  times the number x: 5x

5x = 3x +4

Subtract 3x from both the sides.

5x - 3x = 3x +4 - 3x

2x = 4

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 4/2

x=2

The number is 2
