2x-y=16
-2y-x=-8
You need to solve on of the equations for x or y.  I will solve the first equation for y.
2x-y=16
-y=-2x+16
y=+2x-16
Then you can substitute that y value for the y value in the second equation (2y-x=-8) can be written as 2(2x-16)-x=-8 since y=2x-16.
then you solve for x. 
4x-32-x=-8
3x=24
x=8
therefore y=0 since 2(0)-8=-8
I will complete the second part of the question either in the comments or a new answer later when I have more time.

9mph in still water it takes 5hrs longer to travel 74 miles upstream than downstream find the rate of current and round to neare
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The rate of current is 2.5 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed in the water when current is absent is 9 mph.

If the speed of the current is v mph then the upstream speed is (9 - v) mph and the downstream speed is (9 + v) mph.

Now, it takes 5 hours longer to travel 74 miles upstream than down stream, then we can write the equation as  

\frac{74}{9 - v} - \frac{74}{9 + v} = 5

⇒ \frac{2v}{81 - v^{2} } = \frac{5}{74}

⇒ 148v = 405 - 5v²

⇒ 5v² + 148v - 405 = 0

Applying Sridhar Acharya's formula we can write  

v = \frac{-148 + \sqrt{148^{2} - 4(5)(-405) }  }{2(5)} (Neglecting the negative root)

⇒ v = \frac{- 148 + 173.2166}{10} = 2.5 mph (Rounded to the nearest 10th) (Answer)

Which graph represents an odd function?<br><br>Answer by using: A, B, C, or D for each graph.
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: The correct option is C.

Explanation:

A function is called an odd function if,

f(-x)=-f(x)

It means if the points are in the form of (x,y) then (-x,-y) is also in the graph.

Reason for correct option:

In option C, a point  (1,2),

It means,

f(1)=2

And we have another point (-1,-2).

f(-1)=-f(1)=-2

The other points are (2,3),(-2,-3),(3,-1),(-3,1),(4,0),(-4,0). Therefore the function is an odd function.

Reason for incorrect option:

In option A, a point is (1,3), therefore the value of function at x = -1 should be -3.

But the value of function is 1 at x=-1, therefore it is not an odd function.

In option B, a point is  (1,0), therefore the value of function at x = -1 should be 0.

But the value of function is -3 at x=-1, therefore it is not an odd function.

In option D, a point is (1,-1), therefore the value of function at x = -1 should be 1.

But the value of function is -1 at x=-1, therefore it is not an odd function.
