What is the solution to the system of equations? x+y=5 x-2y=2 (_,_)

1 answer:

5 0

You can use the substitution method. Using the first equation in terms of y,
y = 5 - x
Substitute this to the second equation to get the value of x.
x - 2(5 - x) = 2
x - 10 + 2x = 2
3x = 2 + 10
3x = 12
x = 4

For y, just substitute the value of x that we have used in the first equation.
y = 5 - 4 = 1

Therefore, in coordinate form, that is (4,1)

Daniel runs 40/5 miles in 124/₁ minutes. What is the unit rate in terms of miles per minute? What the answer:

sasho [114]

Using the given information, the unit rate is 0.0645 miles/minute

<h3>Calculating rate </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the unit rate

From the given information,

Daniel runs 40/5 miles in 124 minutes

That is,

Distance = 40/5 miles = 8 miles

Time = 124 minutes

Using the formula,

Rate = Distance / Time

Rate = 8 miles / 124 minutes

Rate = 0.0645 miles/minute

Hence, the unit rate is 0.0645 miles/minute
