The clock is showing 7:55 AM
Since it’s 12 minutes behind then the time would be 7:43 AM
-3x - y = -17
4x + 2y = 20
multiply one part of the equation so that we can be able to use the process of elimination.
(-3x - y = -17)2
4x + 2y = 20
Now we have:
-6x -2y = - 34
4x+2y= 20
------------------------
-2x = -14
Divide -2 on both sides.
-2x = -14
/-2 /-2
x = -7.
=============================================
To solve for y, we just have to substitute the value of x to any of the equation given above, that we feel comfortable with. And I'm going to choose this equation: 4x + 2y = 20
4x + 2y = 20
4(-7) + 2y = 20
-28 + 2y = 20
Add 28 on both sides
-28 + 2y = 20
+28 +28
---------------------
2y = 48
/2 /2
y = 24.
The last thing you would do is to check if the answers is correct.
All you have to do is plug in the values of x and y into both equations and see if they equal to one another.
You may have to do this by yourself :P

Answer:
70 miles /hour = r
Step-by-step explanation:
d=rt
Substitute d=350 miles and t = 5 hours
350 miles = r* 5 hours
Divide each side by 5 hours
350 miles = 5 hours = r
70 miles /hour = r
creo que paco es el mayor. lo siento si me equivoco! no soy muy buena en las proporciones
Answer:
- 24
Step-by-step explanation:
4(m + 2p) ← substitute m = 2 and p = - 4 into the expression
= 4(2 + 2(- 4) )
= 4(2 - 8)
= 4(- 6)
= - 24
