If u multiply the first equation by -4, u get -2x - y = -20

and when u add the 2 equations..
-2x - y = -20
2x + 3/8y = 5
-----------------
0 - 5/8y = -15.....u notice that the x terms r eliminated.

What is the slope of the<br> points (4, -2) and (-4, -4)?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

= 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope given two points by using the following formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (-4 - -2)/(-4 -4)

   = (-4+2)/(-4-4)

   = -2/-8

  = 1/4

Two cyclists, 112 miles apart, start riding toward each other at the same time. One cycles 3 times as fast as the other, and the
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Speed of a= 21 miles/hr

r = Speed of b= 7 miles/hr

Speed of a = 3r

Step-by-step explanation:

The cyclist are 112 miles apart

Time traveled by two = 4 hours

Speed of a = 3 * speed of b

If a cylcles 3 times More than b, then a will cover 3*distance of b

But speed = distance/time

Time = 4hours

Total distance=112

a = 3b

3b + b = 112

4b = 112

b = 112/4

b = 28 miles

a = 3b

a = 3*28

a = 84 Miles

They bought traveled 4 hours

Speed of a = 84miles/4 hours

Speed of a= 21 miles/hr

Speed of b = 28miles/4 hours

Speed of b = 7 miles/hr
