D/60 + D/50 = 2D/55 - 1/2

 find common denominator ( 3300)

3300/60 = 55

3300/50 = 66

3300/55=60

so then you get 55D +66D= 60(2D)-1650

121D=120D-1650

D=1650 miles

check

1650/60 =27.5, 1650/50 = 33,  27.5 + 33 = 60.5 hours total

1650/55 = 30, 30 x 2 = 60

60.5-60 = 0.5 longer

 so distance = 1650 miles

The table below shows four systems of equations:
Ede4ka [16]
To determine which system of equations would have the same solution, we evaluate each system of equations.

System 1 4x − 5y = 2, 3x − y = 8
x = 38/11
y = 26/11

<span>System 2 4x − 5y = 2, 3x − 2y = 1
x = 1/7
y = -2/7

System 3 4x − 5y = 2, 3x − 8y = 4
x = -4/17
y = -10/17

System 4 4x − 5y = 2, 10x − 9y = 4
x = 1/7
y = -2/7

</span><span>
Therefore, the correct answer is option 3. </span><span>System 2 and system 4 are equal, because the second equation in system 4 is obtained by adding the first equation in system 2 to two times the second equation in system 2.

     4x− 5y = 2 2( 3x − 2y = 1)
-----------------------    10x - 9y = 4</span>
