Answer:
B: (2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
1) First isolate the y in both equations
2) Set the equations equal to each other
3) Solve for x (you should get 2 and 5)
4) Insert the x values back in to get your y values
5) You should have gotten (2, -1) and (5, 2)
These are your two answers, but the question is only asking for one solution and (5,2) isn't one of the options, so it has to be (2,-1).
Answer: 315 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
let onward speed = x mph, then distance = 7x
return speed = (x+18) mph, (same) distance = 5(x+18)
equating the two,
7x = 5(x+18)
2x = 90 ==> x = 45 mph
so distance = 7*45 = 315 miles
