Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let +s+ = the speed of the passenger train
+s+-+20%5D+ = the speed of the freight train
Let +t+ = time in hours for both trains
-------------------------------------
Equation forpassenger train:
(1) +280+=+s%2At+
Equation for freight train:
(2) +180+=+%28+s-20+%29%2At+
------------------------
(1) +t+=+280%2Fs+
Substitute (1) into (2)
(2) +180+=+%28+s-20+%29%2A%28+280%2Fs+%29+
(2) +180s+=+280s+-+5600+
(2) +100s+=+5600+
(2) +s+=+56+
and
+s+-+20+=+36+
The speed of the passenger train is 56 mi/hr
The speed of the freight train is 36 mi/hr
-------------------------------------
check:
(1) +280+=+56%2At+
(1) +t+=+5+
and
(2) +180+=+%28+56-20+%29%2At+
(2) +180+=+36t+
(2) +t+=+5+
OK
Answer:
x=1
y=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
they have already isolated y in both equations
label both equations
y=-x............1
y=3x-4........2
sub 1 into 2
-x=3x-4
-x-3x=-4
-4x=-4
x=1........ 3
sub 3 into 1
y=-(1)
y=-1
What you have to do is multiply 0.42 by 8.3 million, then add that number to 8.3 million and you will have the total number of college students.
im in middle school taking algebra 1 rn, but im pretty sure the equation is similar to 40x(40 pledges every mile) + 250(how much he already has from running) = y(the unknown variable).
so the equation would be 40x+250=y and you solve that to get the expression of how much he makes per mile
Answer:

- x - 6</h2><h2 />
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply each term in the first parentheses by each term in the second parentheses ( FOIL)
Calculate the product
Collect like terms
Hope this helps..
