Hello friend,here is the solution
<span>Let x be the total distance </span>
<span>Distance travelled by rail = 3/5 x </span>
Distance travelled by taxi = 1/4 x
<span>Distance travelled by bus = 1/8 x </span>
<span>The equation we obtain is </span>
========================
<span>x = 3/5 x + 1/4 x + 1/8 x +2 </span>

<span>hope this solution helps you......</span>
Answer:
A system of linear equation could only have 1 solution. This is because the straight lines will only have to meet, cross, or intersect each other once.

There are many different methods in arriving to the final answer. However, errors cannot be perfectly avoided. One of these errors to mistakenly identify equations as linear. It is important that we know that the equations we are dealing with are of exact or correct characteristics.
Also, if she had used substitution method, she might have mistakenly taken the value of one variable for the other.
Y = -3/4x - 2
Add 2 and subtract y
-3/4x - y = 2
No fractions or negative
Multiply all by 4
-3x - 4y = 8
Now multiply all by (-)
Solution: 3x + 4y = -8
When they are collinear, they lie on the same straight line
