Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x - 3y = - 2 → (1)

4x + y = 24 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by - 2 and adding to (2) gives

- 4x + 6y = 4 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term

(4x - 4x) + (y + 6y) = (24 + 4), that is

7y = 28 ( divide both sides by 7 )

y = 4

Substitute y = 4 into either of the 2 equations

Substituting y = 4 into (2)

4x + 4 = 24 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

4x = 20 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 5

Thus the answers x = 5 and y = 4 are the same as her first method

Ok need help this is the question :Use the Pythagorean theorem to write an equation for the distance Jane's trainer bikes.

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Jane traveled 8 miles farther then her trainer

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagora's Theorem

In any right triangle, the square of the measure of the hypotenuse is the sum of the squares of the legs. This can be expressed with the formula:

$c^2=a^2+b^2$

Where

c = Hypotenuse or largest side

a,b = Legs or shorter sides

Jane's path from the Health Club to the end of her route describes two sides of a right triangle of lengths a=16 miles and b=12 miles.

Her total distance traveled is 16 + 12 = 28 miles

Her trainer goes directly from the Health Club to meet her through the hypotenuse of the triangle formed in the path.

We can calculate the length of his route as:

$c=\sqrt{16^2+12^2}$

$c=\sqrt{256+144}=\sqrt{400}=20$

c = 20 miles

The difference between their traveled lengths is 28 - 20 = 8 miles

Jane traveled 8 miles farther then her trainer
