Answer: x = -8 ; y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

1*x-2*y=4

1*x = 4 + 2*y

x = 4 + 2*y

Now you replace the value of x on the following equation:

-1*x+10*y=8

-1*(4 + 2*y) = 8

-4 - 2*y = 8

-2*y = 8+4

-2*y = 12

y = -12/2

y = -6

You replace the value of y in the previous equation:

x = 4 + 2*y

x = 4 + 2*(-6)

x = 4 - 12

x = -8

Luden [163]

Answer:

= 426 1/4 hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 1/2 = 5.5 Days in a week

7 3/4 = 7.75 hr. Per Day

Total hours in a week = 5.5 × 7.75 = 42.625 hr in a week

In 10 weeks = 42.625 × 10 = 426.25 hr.

Mechanics paper/Math (please helpp!!!)

Answer:

(i) 15 m, 6 m/s

(ii) 90 m

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) For some acceleration (a) from rest, the distance covered (d) in time t is ...

d = (1/2)at^2

The distance covered by Ben in the 5 seconds he is accelerating is ...

d = (1/2)(1.2 m/s²)(5 s)² = 15 m

Of course, Ben's speed at that point is ...

s = (1.2 m/s²)(5 s) = 6 m/s

(ii) When Ben has been walking 5 s, Alan has been walking 10 s, so Alan has covered (10 s)(4 m/s) = 40 m. Their distance difference of 40 -15 = 25 m is being made up at the rate of their speed differences: (6 m/s) -(4 m/s) = 2 m/s.

It will take (25 m)/(2 m/s) = 12.5 s additional time for Ben to catch Alan. In the 22.5 s that Alan has been walking before they meet, he will have walked ...

(22.5 s)(4 m/s) = 90 m . . . the distance OP
