Answer:
2a + 3b = 5
b = a - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
2a + 3b = 5
b = a - 5
You can write this another way:
2a + 3(a-5) = 5 ( I added the second formula in the first one )
Now you gotta factor out:
2a + 3a - 15 = 5
Here im gonna do plus 15
2a + 3a = 20 ==> 5a = 20
Now if you divide by 5, you get: a = 4
Now you can fill in the second formula again
b = a - 5 (ill fill this in now)
b = 4 - 5 = -1
So, this makes:
a = 4 , b = -1
Answer:
infinite solution
Step-by-step explanation:
because Y = 7(x + 2) and y = 7x + 14 are the same
y = 7(x+2) = 7x + 14
eliminate to see
y = 7x + 14
-(y = 7x +14)
= 0 = 0 + 0
so it is infinite solution
The speed of the current is 7 miles per
hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let × represent speed of the current.
We have been given that a motorboat
maintained a constant speed of 11 miles per
hour relative to the water in going 18 miles
upstream and then returning.
The speed of motorboat while going
upstream would be 11
The speed of motorboat while going
downstream would be 11 + 2
Time

The first poster is not an accurate representation of the painting, but the second poster is an accurate representation because the ratio between the first and original lengths did not equal the ratio between the first and original widths but the second poster's ratios were equal.
