Answer:

10 SENIORS

Step-by-step explanation:

x=# of seniors

y=# of juniors

x+y=23, x=2y-7

plug the value of x in the second equation into the first
(2y-7)+y=23
Remove parentheses
2y-7+y=23
Combine like terms
3y-7=23
Add 7 to BOTH sides
3y=30
divide BOTH sides by 3
3y/3=30/3
y=10
There are 10 juniors in the class

FINAL STEPS
Plug y (which is 10) into the first equation
x+y=23
x+10=23
subtract 10 from BOTH sides
x=13
Since X equals the number of seniors, there are 10 seniors in the class

Answer:

No, modern train cannot travel on old railroad.

Step-by-step explanation:

In rail transport, track gauge is the spacing of the rails on a railway track and is measured between the inner faces of the load-bearing rails.

Most of the modern train are based on broad gauge. The separation in broad gauge is about 5 ft and 6 inches and in the standard gauge the separation between the tracks is 4 ft and $8\frac{1}{2}$ inches. So for the modern train it is not possible to travel on the tracks whose separation is no more than 4.5 feet.
