Y= x +2 and y=3x-4 solved using substitution

1 answer:

6 0

So I did this:

y=x +2
y=3x-4

I used the first equation to plug into the second equation.
x+2= 3x -4
I subtracted 3 from both sides so I get
-2x+2=-4
So I subtract 2 from both sides so I get
-2x=-6
I divide -2 on both sides and so I get
x=3
Then I plug the x into either equation. I did the first equation.
y=3+2
y=5
So x=3 and y=5

A round trip from Montreal to LA is 2,688 miles and takes an airline 9 hours and 20 minutes. Given the outbound trip is the same

Ksju [112]

Answer:

4.074 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

r =

The formula for speed = Distance × Time

Hence,

Let the outbound speed = r

return trip speed = r + 25x/100 = 125r/100 = 1.25r

Note that: 9 hours and 20 minutes = 9.167

Let t1 and t2 be the time taken to travel on way and return journey.

t1 + t2 = 9 hr 10 min = 9.167 hrs

Hence:

2688/r + 2688/1.25r = 9.167

LCM(1.25r)

(2688 × 1.25) + 2688 /1.25r= 9.167

3360 + 2688 = 9.167 × 1.25r

6048 = 11.45875r

r = 6048/11.45875

Outbound trip rl = 527.8062615904876mph

Return trip speed = r + 25x/100 = 125r/100 = 1.25r

= 1.25 ×

659.75782699mph

Time for return trip = Distance/Speed

= 2,688 miles/659.75782699mph/

= 4.0742222222 hours

Approximately = 4.074 hours
