Solve by elimination.
The goal is to cancel out one of the variables in order to easily solve for the other variable.
Do this by changing the equations so that the coefficients of either x or y add up to 0.
Notice the coefficients of y are 3 and 3, if we make one of them negative then they add up to 0. 3+ (-3) = 0
Multiply 2nd equation by -1.
6x +3y = 9
-2x -3y = -1
__________
4x +0y = 8
Solve for x
4x = 8
x = 8/4 = 2
Plug x=2 back into one of original equations to find y.
---> 2(2) + 3y = 1
---> 4 + 3y = 1
---> 3y = -3
---> y = -1
Therefore solution is (2,-1)
Answer:
It is either 11/12 or 0.91666666667.....
Step-by-step explanation:
Because this can not be actually divided into a "number" like 2 or 5, we can only get a approximate. Like the top answer.
Round to the nearest ten is 0.9
Round it to nearest hundredths is 0.92
So r is a number that when you add to t it will increase so its
T + r
The answer to your problem is 11
Answer:
independent: time (hours)
dependent: distance (miles)
Step-by-step explanation:
The independent variable would be time because it can be changed depending on his walking speed.
The dependent variable would be distance
