The correct answer is A: x=2 and y=-3. Either method would work, but for example, let's use elimination. If you multiply the second equation by 5, you get: 10x +5y = 5. When you add both equations, you can then cross out both y terms. You are left with one equation that reads: 13x=26. Solving for x gives you 2. You can substitute 2 in for x in either equation and you will receive -3 for your y value.
Answer:
a. 47.6mph (distance divided by time = speed. divide each rowers distance by their speed, then add them all)
b. 1.26 minutes per mile (i used a calculator so i dunno how to explain)
let me know if this is right or not :)
Answer:
a=8:12 c=£1.05:0.70 d=30:50:60:40
b=9:15
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 0.1x+200
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's establish that:
x is independent
y is dependent
Basically, the value of y will depend on what x is.
The problem states that the slope of the line is Dave's comission, so since he makes 10% of comission, we can make the slope as 0.1x (mx)
The problem also states that the y intercept (b) is Dave's base salary, and earlier in the problem it states that his base salary is $200 a week. Therefore, b=200
now, the equation is:
y=0.1x+200
Hope this helps!
I would have to say 85 but thats just a guess.
