Answer:
Rutherford B. Hayes
Step-by-step explanation:
It was controversial, however Hayes was declared the winner of the election.
We can't eliminate as is so we have to change something up there in the equations to get either the x values the same number but opposite signs, or the y values the same number but opposite signs. I chose to change the y values to the same number but different signs. In the first equation y is -3y and in the second one, y is -8y. The LCM of both of those numbers is 24, so we will multiply the first equation by an 8 (8*3=24) and the second equation by 3 (3*8=24) but since they are both negative right now, one of those multiplications has to involve a negative because - * - = +. Set it up like this:
8(-10x - 3y = -18)
-3(-7x - 8y = 11)
Multiply both of those all the way through to get new equations:
-80x - 24y = -144
21x +24y = -33
Now the y's cancel each other out leaving only the x's:
-59x = -177 and x = 3. Now plug that 3 into either one of the original equations to find the y value. Either equation will work; you'll get the same answer using either one. Promise. -7(3) - 8y = 11 gives a y value of -4. so your solution is (3, -4) or B above.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The table shows how the time it takes a train to travel between two cities depends on its average speed.
function models the time, y, in hours, that it takes the train to travel between the two cities at an average speed of x miles per hour
y represents the time
and x represents the average speed
WE know distance = speed * times
LEts find the distance using the table
distance = 32* 5= 160
40*4= 160
50*3.2 = 160
Time = distance / speed
times is y , distance is 160 and speed is x

Answer:
y=1/2x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations come in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept. Looking at the graph we know that the y-intercept is (0,2), so that rules out options B and C.
To find the gradient is a little more tricky, but we can follow the formula:
, where rise is the vertical value and run is the horizontal value
So we sub in our values:
And simplify:
So now we sub in our new found values into y=mx+c:
y=1/2x+2
