Answer:

1.3\ days

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the units rate of the first glacier

\frac{75}{3}=25\frac{meters}{day}

using proportion  

\frac{25}{1}\frac{meters}{day}=\frac{200}{x}\frac{meters}{days}\\ \\x=200/25\\ \\x=8\ days

step 2

Find the units rate of the second glacier

\frac{107.5}{5}=21.5\frac{meters}{day}

using proportion  

\frac{21.5}{1}\frac{meters}{day}=\frac{200}{x}\frac{meters}{days}\\ \\x=200/21.5\\ \\x=9.3\ days

step 3

Find the difference

9.3\ days-8\ days=1.3\ days

X+y=5<br> 2x - y = 1<br><br> Need help
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

y = 3

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=5  ==   -2x - 2y = -10

2x-y = 1 ==  2x - y = 1    +

                  -------------------

                  -3y = -9

                  <u>y = 3</u>

x + y = 5

x + 3 = 5

What is 1 plus 2 plus 3.... plus 200?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

20100
