Mathematics
1 answer:
Rainbow [258]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x = y - 5......(1)

2y = 3x.......(2)

Putting (1) into (2)

2y = 3(y - 5)

2y = 3y - 15

Collecting like terms

2y - 3y = -15

-y = -15

y = 15

Putting y = 15 in (1)

x = y - 5

x = 15 - 5

x = 60

For how many minutes did Lynn run at a greater speed than Kael? 12 17 23 28.
Archy [21]

Answer:

<u><em>28 minutes.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see from our graph that 12 minutes after starting the race Lynn left Kael behind and he ran at a greater speed till the race ended after 40 minutes.

To find total number of minutes Lynn ran faster than Kael we will subtract 12 from 40.

Therefore, Lynn ran at a greater speed than Kael for <u><em>28 minutes.</em></u>

Find the slope of the points (2, 13) and (8, 1)
Pie
-2

y2-y1/x2-x1
take the y coordinate of the second pair of coordinates and subtract it by the y coordinate of the first pair, then take the x coordinate from the second pair of coordinates and subtract it from the x coordinate from the first pair. then put your answer from the y coordinate over the answer from the x coordinates. 1 - 13 / 8 - 2, then you get -12/6, which simplifies to 2.

Hope this helps :)
