Answer:

  7/33 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

If we designate the locations of Ben, Shaneeka, and Phil by point B, S, and P, respectively, the segment addition theorem tells us ...

  PS + SB = PB

Filling in the given distances, we have ...

  PS + 1/3 = 6/11

Subtracting 1/3, we can find the distance between Shaneeka and Phil:

  PS = 6/11 - 1/3 = (18 -11)/(33) = 7/33 . . . . miles

Shaneeka lives 7/33 mile from Phil.

_____

Addition and subtraction of fractions can be done using the formula ...

  a/b +c/d = (ad +bc)/(bd)

Of course, any of the numbers can be negative.

don't worry about the other writing I want to see it worked out step by step so I can work the rest out and learn how to do them
artcher [175]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

6y = 12x + 26

15y = 45x + 60

First let's simplify these equations.

6y = 12x + 26

Divide each term by 6.

y = 2x + 26/6

Simplify the fraction.

26/6

= 13/3

Your simplified equation is:

y = 2x + 13/3

Let's simplify the other equation.

15y = 45x + 60

Divide each term by 15.

y = 3x + 4

These are your simplified equations.

y = 2x + 13/3

y = 3x + 4

We can see that the slope of the first equation is not equal to the slope of the second equation.

  • equation 1: slope is 2 shown from 2x
  • equation 2: slope is 3 shown from 3x

The y-intercept of the first equation is not equal to the y-intercept of the second equation.

  • equation 1: y-intercept is 13/3 shown by + 13/3
  • equation 2: y -intercept is 4 shown by + 4

Now we want to solve the equations.

Both equations are equal to y, so you can set them equal to each other.

2x + 13/3 = 3x + 4

Combine like terms.

1/3 = x

Plug x = 1/3 into both of the equations separately..

y = 2(1/3) + 13/3

y = 2/3 + 13/3

y = 15/3

y = 5

y = 3(1/3) + 4

y = 3/3 + 4

y = 1 + 4

y = 5

Your solution is (1/3, 5)

The system of equations has one solution.

Hope this helps!
