The distance flown by plane is 750 kilometers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
Distance traveled by plane = x
Distance traveled by car = y
Total distance = x+y
According to given statement;
The distance by car was 125 kilometers less than the distance by plane.
y = x - 125 => x=y+125 Eqn 1
The total distance was 500 kilometers less than three times the distance traveled by car.
Total distance = 3y - 500
x+y=3y-500 Eqn 2
Putting value of x from Eqn 1;

Putting y=625 in Eqn 1

The distance flown by plane is 750 kilometers.

I really don’t remember how to do these
We have the following equation:
y = 7 / 2x +6
For this case, what we must do is replace the value of x = -3 in the given equation.
We have then:
y = (7/2) * (- 3) +6
y = -4.5
Therefore, the other coordinate is:
(-3, -4.5)
Answer:
(-3, -4.5)
Answer:
so x=5 1/3 and
y= -2 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
x-3y= -2x+3y=16. First we need to move all variables to one side of the equation and whole numbers to the other side of the equation. I see
x-3y+2x-3y=16. -3y-3y equals to -6y. 2x+x=3x. so 3x-6y=16. Lets take out the -6y so our equation would be 3x=16. x would equal 5 1/3. Now lets put back -6y into our equation. Let's now substitute x as 0. 3 times 0 equals 0 so our equation would now be -6y=16 which equals to -2 2/3.
so x=5 1/3 and
y= -2 2/3
