Answer: x= -189, y =252
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number be x and second number be y
so
x + y = 63
x = 63-y
now
1/9 of x + 1/6 of y = 21
x/9 + y/6 = 21
substituting x's value from equation i
(63-y)/9 + y/6 = 21
(378-6y+9y)/54 = 21
378+3y = 1134
3y = 1134-378
so, 3y = 756
so, y = 756/3
so, y = 252
now
x = 63-252
so, x = -189
A. = 7/8
b. = 7/4 = 1 3/4
c. = 7/4 = 1 3/4
d. = 7/4 = 1 3/4
= b,c,d
To elaborate:
To do this problem, we assume that Mr. Sanchez is driving at a constant rate.
According to this information, he has driven 120 mi in 3 hr. To find how much he drives in 5 hr, we first have to find how many mi he drives in 1 hour. To do this, we divide 120 miles by 3 hours, since we assume that he managed to drive an equal amount in each hour.
120/3=40
Therefore Mr. Sanchez drove at a rate of 40 mph.
However, this isn't the final answer. 40 miles is the distance for one hour of driving. To find the distance for 5 hours, we have to multiply the distance by 5 as well.
40 times 5=200
In conclusion, Mr. Sanchez will drive 200 miles in 5 hours.
