ASHA 777 [7]2 years ago

8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-variable can be eliminated by adding 3 times the first equation to the second:

3(2x -y) +(x +3y) = 3(11) +(-5)

7x = 28 . . . . simplify

x = 4 . . . . . . . divide by 7

_____

Using Cramer's Rule, you can also find the x-value. The math is not so different.

x = ((-1)(-5) -(3)(11))/(-1(1) -3(2)) = -28/-7 = 4

Answer:

B) 120

Step-by-step explanation:

m = miles

$98=$80+$0.15m

$98-$80=$80-$80+$0.15m

$18=$0.15m

$18/$0.15=$0.15m/$0.15

120=m

Juliet drove 120 miles for $98.

(this is a good explanation, I guess)

Tom drove at a constant speed 50 mph for 2.5 hours Albert drove at a constant speed of 65 mph for 2 hours. How many more total m

Alona [7]

Answer:

5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = speed · time

Tom's distance = (50 mi/h)·(2.5 h) = 125 mi

Albert's distance = (65 mi/h)·(2 h) = 130 mi

Albert drove 130 -125 = 5 miles farther than Tom.
