well, let's split the hours in minutes, so since 1 hr is 60 minutes, so he can walk 2.833 miles in 60 minutes, well, 3 hrs is 3*60 = 180 minutes, then we add 15 minutes, that's 195 minutes.
if he can walk 2.833 miles in 60 minutes, how long will it be for 195 minutes?
Answer:
(–3, –4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given pair of linear equation
-4x+y = 8
=> y = 8 + 4x _____(1)
x - 5y = 17 (2)
substituting value of y from equation 1 in equation 2 we have
x - 5(8 + 4x) = 17
=> x - 5*8 -5*4x = 17
=> x - 40 - 20x = 17
=> -40 - 19x = 17
=> -19x = 17+40 = 57
=> x = 57/-19 = -3
Thus, x = -3
y = 8 + 4x = 8 +4(-3) = 8 -12 = -4
Thus, y = -4
Hence, paired solution for given equation is (–3, –4).
d) x=-12 because x/-3=4 can be rearranged as x=4x-3 so x=-12
