EQUATION 1)    2x - 3y = -4
EQUATION 2)    7x + 9y =- 5

Multiply the whole first equation by 3 so that we could find the values of X first.

1)   3(2x - 3y = -4)

1)   6x-9y=-12
2)   7x+9y=-5

Add the 2 equations together.
13x=-17
x=-17/3  OR -5 2/3

2x-3y=-4

Plug the value of X into the equation.

2(-17/3) -3y=-4

-11 1/3 - 3y=-4

-3y=-4+11 1/3

-3y=22/3

y=-22/9 OR -2 4/9

~Hope I helped!~

Step-by-step explanation:

mx+b=y

m=(1/5)

(-8,-7)=(x,y)

Car A, traveling at a constant 10 m/s, crosses the start line 3 seconds before Car B, who is traveling at a constant 15 m/s. At
Margaret [11]
The distance between Car A and car B,When Car A crosses the start line is:
distance =speed car B* time
distance=(15 m/s)(3 s)=45 m
 
Distance traveled by car A =x,  (when the car B is at the same distance from the start line)
time of car A=t

x=10 m/st  ⇒    x=10t    (1)

Distance traveled by car B=x
time of car B=t-3

x=15(t-3)  (2)

With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:

x=10t
x=15(t-3)

We solve this system of equations:

10t=15(t-3)
10t=15t-45
-5t=-45
t=-45 / -5
t=9

t-3=9-3=6

x=10 t=10 (9)=90

Answer: The time would be 9 seconds for Car A and 6 seconds for car B and the distance would be 90 meters.
