recalling that d = rt, distance = rate * time.
we know Hector is going at 12 mph, and he has already covered 18 miles, how long has he been biking already?
so Hector has been biking for those 18 miles for 3/2 of an hour, namely and hour and a half already.
then Wanda kicks in, rolling like a lightning at 16mph.
let's say the "meet" at the same distance "d" at "t" hours after Wanda entered, so that means that Wanda has been traveling for "t" hours, but Hector has been traveling for "t + (3/2)" because he had been biking before Wanda.
the distance both have travelled is the same "d" miles, reason why they "meet", same distance.
<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
Given equations;
y₁ = 3x - 8 -------------------(i)
y₂ = 0.5x + 7 --------------------(ii)
To fill the table, substitute the values of x into equations (i) and (ii)
=> At x = 0
y₁ = 3(0) - 8 = -8
y₂ = 0.5(0) + 7 = 7
=> At x = 1
y₁ = 3(1) - 8 = -5
y₂ = 0.5(1) + 7 = 7.5
=> At x = 2
y₁ = 3(2) - 8 = -2
y₂ = 0.5(2) + 7 = 8
=> At x = 3
y₁ = 3(3) - 8 = 1
y₂ = 0.5(3) + 7 = 8.5
=> At x = 4
y₁ = 3(4) - 8 = 4
y₂ = 0.5(4) + 7 = 9
=> At x = 5
y₁ = 3(5) - 8 = 7
y₂ = 0.5(5) + 7 = 9.5
=> At x = 6
y₁ = 3(6) - 8 = 10
y₂ = 0.5(6) + 7 = 10
=> At x = 7
y₁ = 3(7) - 8 = 13
y₂ = 0.5(7) + 7 = 10.5
=> At x = 8
y₁ = 3(8) - 8 = 16
y₂ = 0.5(8) + 7 = 11
=> At x = 9
y₁ = 3(9) - 8 = 19
y₂ = 0.5(9) + 7 = 11.5
=> At x = 10
y₁ = 3(10) - 8 = 22
y₂ = 0.5(10) + 7 = 12
The complete table is attached to this response.
(ii) To find the solution of the system of equations using the table, we find the value of x for which y₁ and y₂ are the same.
As shown in the table, that value of <em>x = 6</em>. At this value of x, the values of y₁ and y₂ are both 10.
