Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+8y=12 3x-8y=11

If we have to solve by substitution, Take the first equation and divide by 2

2x/2 + 8y/2 =12/2

x+4y = 6

Then subtract 4y from each side

x = 6 -4y

Then substitute this into the second equation

This is best solved by elimination

2x+8y=12

3x-8y=11

----------------

5x = 36

x = 36/5

Ilya [14]
Let the actual distance be x mile.

9/2 inch = x mile
(9/2)/(1/4)=x/(1/2)

              x=9

the actual distance is 9 mile.
