Question

In a canoe race, team a is traveling 6 miles per hour and is 2 miles ahead of team

Answer 1

Given that In a canoe race, team a is traveling 6 miles per hour and is 2 miles ahead of team b.

Team b is also traveling 6 miles per hour. The teams continue traveling at their current rates for the remainder of the race.

The system of linear equations that represents this situation is given by

d = 6t + 2
d = 6t

Answer 2

Answer:

The system of linear equations is

$d=6t+2$

$d=6t$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

d--------> distance in miles

t-------> time in hours

remember that

$speed=\frac{distance}{time}\\ \\distance=speed*time$

so

Linear equation Team A

$d=6t+2$

Linear equation Team B

$d=6t$
