Remark
This may be a little confusing, but because they are travelling in opposite directions, the distances add when you want to get how far apart they are.
d1 + d2 = 1541
Equation
Let the time this happens = t
d1 = 323*t
d2 = 347*t
323*t + 347*t = 1541 Combine like terms on the left.
670t = 1541 Divide by 670
t = 1541/670
t = 2.3 hours pass before the distance of 1541 miles are between the two planes. You might need the answer to be 2 hours 18 minutes.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Well to find the missing side you're going to need the other two. Take the one side and multiply by itself. Take the other one and multiply by itself. Add those two products. Then root it. Basically find something that multiplys by itself to get that product
Y = -x + 4.....so sub in -x + 4 in for y in the other equation
x + 2y = -8
x + 2(-x + 4) = -8
x - 2x + 8 = -8
x - 2x = -8 - 8
-x = -16
x = 16
y = -x + 4
y = -16 + 4
y = - 12
one solution (16,-12)
