From the beginning we know we are dealing with two different rates. Distance is equal to (Speed X Time). We have two different speeds though. We will call the min speed = x and the max speed = y.  With those two ideas in place we can make two equations for both Tony and Rae.
Tony:
2x+3.5y=355
Rae:
2x+3y=320
Now you can solve the equations by subtracting Rae's equation from Tony's

.5y=35 solve for y and you get 70
Now plug that y value back into either equation and you can solve for x. I'll use Rae's distance: 
2x+3(70)=320
x=55

The system of equations: 5x-4y=-3
Sophie [7]

Answer:

3)5x-4y=-3

6x+4y=14

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is given

5x-4y=-3

3x+2y=7

Multiplying both sides of the lower equation by 2, we get

6x + 4y = 14

That means your answer 3)
