95x=85x+288
You could add 288 to any side, it just shows that they're 288 miles apart.
Let's subtract 85x from both sides.
10x=288
28.8=x
It'll take 28.8 hours for the trains to meet. Let's make sure.
28.8×95
2,736
28.8×85
2,448
2,736-2,448
288
So, they'll meet up after 28.8 miles.

ra1l [238]

Answer:

guess and check

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear equation systems usually have two or more variables to find.

The values for these variables can be found by different methods, some of them are indeed graphing, substitution and with matrices.

So these are correct options that are used to solve linear systems of equations.

On the other hand, the guess and check method is not used to find the solution of these systems, since the more variables the system has the more difficult it is to guess the answer,<u> the graphic and mathematical methods are more effective and reliable.</u>
