Answer:
(-3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the second equation, we can easily rearrange it to make x the subject.
x - 4y = 5
x = 4y + 5
Now lets put that into the second equation
2x - 2y = -2
2(4y + 5) - 2y = -2
6y + 10 = -2
6y = -12
y = -2
Now lets find x!
x = 4y + 5
x = 4(-2) + 5
x = -3
Now lets format the answer like the question says (ordered pair)
(-3, -2)
Recap: We used substitution and made an equation to work out one of the variables first, then found the second variable using the first.
Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...
time = distance/speed
If distance is "1 round trip", then the time going is ...
going = 0.5/(10 mi/h) . . . . for 1/2 round trip
and the time coming is ...
coming = 0.5/(6 mi/h)
Then the average speed for the full round trip is ...
speed = distance/time
average speed = 1/(going + coming) = 1/(0.5/10 +0.5/6) mi/h
= 1/((3+5)/60) mi/h
= 60/8 mi/h = 7.5 mi/h
Jack's average speed for the round trip was 7.5 mph.
alligators:
x = total number of alligators
n = number of years
x=20x1.25^n
crocodiles:
y = total number of crocodiles
n = number of years
y=25+10n
Total amount of money paid
=11 x 15
=$165
total amount of money sold
=25 x 15
=$375
difference
= 375 - 165
=$210
