(3/5) : (15/6) ===> (3/5) X (6/15) = 18/75 =6/25
Answer:
x = -1 and y = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let u = 1/x, and v = 1/y
Then the pair of equations
-3/x + 4/y = 11
1/x - 2/y = -5
Can be written as
-3u + 4v = 11 .................................(1)
u - 2v = -5......................................(2)
From (2)
u = 2v - 5 .......................................(3)
Substituting (3) into (1)
-3(2v - 5) + 4v = 11
-6v + 15 + 4v = 11
-6v + 4v = 11 - 15
-2v = -4
v = 4/2 = 2
Substituting this value of v in (3)
u = 2v - 5
u = 2(2) - 5
= 4 - 5
= -1
That is
u = -1, v = 2
Since u = 1/x, and v = 1/y, we have
1/x = -1
=> x = -1
And
1/y = 2
=> y = 1/2
Therefore
x = -1 and y = 1/2
Okay so 300 meters per minute and he ran 8 minutes..
300x8=2400
He still had 600 left to go...
2400+600=3,000
He had to run three times longer than Eric...
3000/3=1000
Does that make sense?
