Answer: Endorphins

Explanation: Endorphins are chemicals secreted by the brain also known as neurotransmitters that send electrical signals inside the nervous systems.

The factors that initiate the secretion of endorphins are stress and pain.

When endorphins are secreted they reduce feelings of pains, and in runners that cause a phenomenon called " Runners high" which allows runners to keep running without feeling pain or stress.

Solve the simultaneous equations 5x+y=8 and 5x+5y=7.​
kaheart [24]
The system would equal (1.65,-0.25)

You can use substitution for this. But first we need to put one of the equations into the value of y or x. We can use 5x+y=8 and solve for the value of y. Subtract 5x on both sides and you’ll get the value of y which will look like y=-5x+8.

Next substitute in y for 5y in 5x+5y=7 so that you get 5x+5(-5x+8)=7. Next distribute and you’ll get 5x-25x+40=7, add like terms and you’ll get -20x+40=7. Next you want to subtract by 40 on both sides and you’ll get -20x=-33. Isolate x by dividing by -20 on both sides and you’ll get x=33/20 or 1.65.

Next that you have the x value solve for y by plugging in 1.65 for x in 5x+y=8 and you’ll get 5(1.65)+y=8, distribute and subtract 8.25 on both sides and it will leave you with y=-0.25.
