I think it's 230 inches

B:S = 4x:3x
4x - 3x = 3
x = 3
They were 12 & 9.
Add 5 to that.
So he’s now 17 and she’s 14
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
46,818
<span>Let x = the miles Jeanie ran
y = the miles Jeanie biked
T = 2 hours total time for the duathlon
v1 = 8.5 mph Jeanie's running speed and
v2 = 16 mph Jeanie's biking speed
But T = Jean's time she ran t1 + time she biked t2 I. e t1 + t2 = 2
So we have average speed v2 when she biked = distance (y) / time (t2)
Distance y = v2 * t2 = 16 * t2 and distance when she ran x = 8.5 * t1
Since she covered 27 miles while running and biking we have
x + y = 27
8.5t1 + 16t2 =27 ------(1)
t1 + t2 = 2 --------------(2)
The simultaneous equation gives us
t1 = 2/3 and t2 which is time she biked = 4/3
So 4/3 = 1 1/3. Which is 1 hour 20 minutes</span>
3x + 4y = 18......(2,3)
3(2) + 4(3) = 18
6 + 12 = 18
18 = 18...correct
2x - 2y = 2....(2,3)
2(2) - 2(3) = 2
4 - 6 = 2
-2 = 2...incorrect
when (2,3) is subbed into equation 1, it is true
when (2,3) is subbed into the second equation, it is false
the ordered pair (2,3) is not a solution to the system of linear equations
