Firstly, subtract both sides by 7x: $15+x=-8$

Next, subtract 15 on both sides and <u>your answer will be x = -23.</u>

Solve the system of equations using the substitution method.

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

$x = 14$

$y = -3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$2x + 8y =4$

$x = -3y + 5$

Required

Solve

Substitute $x = -3y + 5$ in $2x + 8y =4$

$2(-3y + 5) + 8y =4$

Open bracket

$-6y + 10 + 8y =4$

Collect like terms

$-6y + 8y =4-10$

$2y =-6$

Divide both sides by 2

$y = -3$

Substitute $y = -3$ in $x = -3y + 5$

$x = -3 * -3 + 5$

$x = 9+ 5$

$x = 14$

A superhero can fly from New York to Los Angeles in 30 minutes. The distance from New York to Los Angeles is approximately 2,450

kow [346]

<h3>Answer: 4900 mph</h3>

Work Shown:

30 min = 30/60 = 0.5 hours

distance = rate*time

rate = distance/time

rate = (2450 miles)/(0.5 hours)

rate = (2450/0.5) mph

rate = 4900 mph

For the sake of comparison, a typical commercial passenger jet can reach max speeds of about 600 mph.
