They are closer in values.
Your answer should be 19>n+3
<u>Answer</u>:
x = 7, y = 2
<u>Explanation</u>:
equations given:
x + 7y = 21
x + 4y = 15
make "x" the subject:
x + 7y = 21
x = 21 - 7y .........equation 1
x + 4y = 15
x = 15 - 4y .......equation 2
Solving both the equations simultaneously:
15 - 4y = 21 - 7y
-4y + 7y = 21 - 15
3y = 6
y = 6 ÷ 3
y = 2
If y is 2
Then x = 21 -7y;
x = 21 - 7(2)
x = 21 - 14
x = 7
The answer is -125. Get this by taking (-5)(-5)(-5)
Set up a proportion: (1/4)/6 = 32/x
Cross multiplying, we have (1/4)x = 192
x = (4)(192) = 768 miles
