Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered pair. 4x + 8y = 16 4x - 8y = 0 A. (4, 2)
balu736 [363]
Adding both equations cancels y:

<span>4x + 8y = 16 
</span><span>4x - 8y = 0 
-----------------+
8x = 16 => x=2

filling in x=2 in the first equation gives:

4*2 + 8y = 16 => 8y = 8 => y=1

So (2,1) is the (x,y) pair that solves the two equations. Answer C.</span>

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

1) 28.4 miles per gallon

2) 34 miles per gallon

3) the red car

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following information:

  • <em>Blue car:</em>

<em>Travels 35 1/2 miles on 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline</em>

  • <em>Red car:</em>

<em>Travels 27 1/5 miles on 4/5 gallons of gasoline</em>

<em />

We want to know the unit rate for miles per hour, and to do it we have to divide the miles they travel by the gallons each car uses:

  • Blue car:

(35 1/2) / (1 1/4) = 28.4 miles per gallon

  • Red car:

(27 1/5) / (4/5) = 34 miles per gallon

The red car travels greater distance with 1 gallon of gasoline
