Let's multiply the first equation by 3. (As you can see y's coefficient in the first one is 1 and in the second one is -3 , we will multiply the first equation by 3 so when we add the equations their sum will be 0)

Now let's add this new equation and our second equation.

We found x=-3
Now let's plug x's value in one of the equations to find y's value.

So we found y=5
Solution ;
(-3, 5)
Given the scale is 1 cm to 25 km.
We have to find the length of the trail from centimeter to the nearest tenth of kilometer.
Let's take the length of the trail be x km.
The length of the trail given 7.2 cm. We will have to find the length in km.
We have to set it up as a proportion. So we can write the proportion as,

We have to cross multiply first. We will get,



So we have got the required length of the train in kilometer.
The actual length of the trail = 180km.
Answer:
17%
Step-by-step explanation:
1,500 + 300 = 1,800
300/1,800 ≈ 17%
