So,
We'll just use A to represent both Jan and Mya's miles, since they ran the same number.
We have the equations:
1. Jan (J) = Mya (M)
2. Sara (S) = M - 8
3. 2A + S = 64
J = M
S = M - 8
We'll just use A to represent both J and M.
S = M - 8
We'll use Elimination by Substitution.
2A + A - 8 = 64
Collect Like Terms
3A - 8 = 64
Add 8 to both sides
3A = 72
Divide both sides by 3
A = 24
Since
A = J
and
A = M
and
J = M
then
J = 24
M = 24
Substitute
S = 24 - 8
S = 16
Check
24 + 24 + 16 = 64
64 = 64 This checks.
So,
J = 24
M = 24
S = 16
<em><u>ANSWER</u></em>
My answer is in the photo above
What it is basically asking is if Y = -4, find the value of x in the equation 6x + 7y = 4x + 4y
To solve this you just need to plug in -4 for y and solve for x
6x + 7(-4) = 4x + 4(-4)
6x - 28 = 4x - 16
Now isolate x by adding 28 to both sides
6x - 28 + 28 = 4x - 16 + 28
6x = 4x + 8
and subtract 4x from both sides
6x - 4x = 4x - 4x + 8
2x = 8
divide both sides by 2
2/2x = 8/2
x = 4
x = 4, y = -2
Answer: (4, - 2)
Hope it helps :)
