Answer:

  50

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between the friends is changing at the constant rate of 50 mph.

___

The equation for the distance in the westerly direction is ...

  w = 30t . . . . . miles, where t is time in hours

The equation for the distance in the southerly direction is ...

  s = 40t . . . . . miles, where t is time in hours

Then the total distance between the friends is ...

  d = √((30t)² + (40t)²) = √(2500t²) = 50t  . . . . miles, where t is time in hours

And the rate of change of distance is the derivative of this with respect to t:

  dd/dt = 50 . . . . . . miles per hour

If you were to use the substitution method to solve the following system, choose the new
mestny [16]

Answer:

23x = -115

Step-by-step explanation:

In the substitution method, you must solve for 1 variable in 1 equation to replace it in the other equation. For the system:

2x - 7y = 4

3x + y = -17

Solving for y in the second equation:

y = -17 - 3x

Replacing y in the first equation:

2x - 7(-17 - 3x) = 4

2x + 119 + 21x = 4

23x = -115

This is the new equation after use the substitution method.
