I hope this helps you

x=y+4

3 (y+4)+y=8

3y+12+y=8

4y= -4

y= -1

x= -1+4

x=3

(3, -1)

a trucker drove 500 miles in h hours. If the trucker averaged 60 mph, which linear equation could be used to find the number of

irina [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a trucker, d = 500 miles

Average speed of the trucker, v = 600 mph

A trucker drove 500 miles in h hours. We need to write the linear equation used to find the number of hours that the trucker drove. Average speed is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

t is time in hours

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{500\ miles}{60\ mph}$

If t is h hours,

$h=\dfrac{500\ miles}{60\ mph}\\\\500=60h$

On solving, h = 5 hours.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Fraction means a part of something

we see
18 times a fraction is bigger or smaller or equal to 18

18 times a fraction means take a part ouf of 18
in this case
18 times 4/5=72/5=14.4
14.4 is less than 18
when you take a fraction of something, it becomes smaller, like if you take a slice of pizza or a fraction of the pizza, it becomes smaller
