Check the picture below.
what's the length? well, l = w + 7.
Answer:
The answer to your question is the first rain lasted 40 hours and the second rain lasted 30 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
1st 15 ml/h = x
2nd 30 ml/h = y
Total time = 70 h and 1500 ml
1.- Write 2 equations
First rain + second rain = 70 h
x + y = 70 (I)
15x + 30 y = 1500 (II)
2.- Solve equations by elimination
Multiply first equation by -15
-15x - 15y = - 1050
15x + 30y = 1500
0x + 15y = 450
y = 450 / 15
y = 30 h
x + 30 = 70
x = 70 - 30
x = 40 h
3.- Conclude
The first rain lasted 40 h and the second rain lasted 30 h.
Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation. It looks familiar now right? (y=mx+b is a linear equation)
Answer:
You have to divide
