Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
6x - 3y = 7 → (1)
- 2x + y = - 8 → (2)
multiplying (2) by 3 and adding to (1) eliminates the variables
- 6x + 3y = - 24 → (3)
add (1) and (3) term by term
0 + 0 = - 17
0 = - 17 ← false statement
This indicates the system has no solution
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
2x = 6+14
2x = 20
x = 10
Answer:
7/15 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the least common denominator between the two fractions. The least common denominator in this case would be 15, so you have to multiply 1/3 by 5 to have a denominator of 15. Then you multiply 1/5 by 3 to have a denominator of 15. You will find that Mark ran a distance of 2 5/15 km and Shaun ran 3 3/15 km. To make it even easier, you can add the whole number back into the fraction so Mark will have ran 35/15 km and Shaun will have ran 48/15 km meaning that Shaun will have ran more. Then you set you fractions up and subtract them.
