They will total cover 3/4

1/16 times x runners=3/4
times both sides by 16/1
x runners=48/4
x runners=12

12 runners

Twelve runners because if you take three-fourths times four you will get twelve-sixteenths. and each runner runs one-sixteenth so it is twelve.

Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: P = 150 - T where P is passenger cars and T is trucks

10P = 7T ⇔ P = $\frac{7T}{10}$

Plug in equation 2 into equation 1:

$\frac{7T}{10}$ = 150 - T

Solving for T, we get 500

What is the solution set for this linear-quadratic system of equations?

Lostsunrise [7]

Y - x - 3 = 0
y = x + 3

y = x^2 - x - 12
x + 3 = x^2 - x - 12
x^2 - x - 12 - x - 3 = 0
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0

x - 5 = 0 y = x + 3
x = 5 y = 5 + 3
y = 8

x + 3 = 0 y = x + 3
x = -3 y = -3 + 3
y = 0

so ur solutions are : (5,8) and (-3,0)
