<span>Find the speed of each car.
Let a be the first car
Let b be the second car
=> a = x miles per hour
=> b = x + 12 miles per hour
=> 2 (x+ x + 12) = 232 miles per hour
=> 2x + 12 = 232
=> 2x + 12 = 116
=> 2x = 116 - 12
=> 2x / 2 = 104 / 2
=> x = 52 (speed of Car A)
=> 52 + 12 = 64 miles per hour (speed of Car B)</span>

Given that R = 8 x + 4 y Find y when x = 8 and R = 30 Give your answer as an improper fraction in its simplest form.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

y = -17/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute with the givens.

30= 8(8) + 4y.

Multiply parentheses.

30 = 64 + 4y

Subtract.

30-64= -34

-34 = 4y.

Divide each side by 4.

y = - 8.5, or -17/2

hope that is right!
