Answer:
x =
, y = 
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Isolate for x in one of the equations:
2x = 9x - 14y
2x-9x = 9x-9x -14y
-7x = -14y
-7x/-7 = -14y/-7
x = 2y
2. Substitute 2y in for x in the second equation:
9(2y) = 40 - 14y
3. Simplify:
18y = 40 - 14y
4. Isolate for y:
18y+14y = 40 -14y+14y
32y = 40
32y/32 = 40/32
y = 
5. Substitute the new y-value into the simplified expression x = 2y:
x = 2(5/4)
x =

Let’s convert all their jumps into inches.
Breanna’s is already in inches (62)
Myquisha jumped 5 feet 4 inches
There are 12 inches in a foot, so
5 feet * 12 inches= 60 inches
Then add the 4 inches
60+4= 64
So Myquisha jumped 64 inches.
Ariana jumped 1 yard, 2 feet, 7 inches
1 yard is equal to 3 feet.
So, she jumped 5 feet 7 inches
12 inches in a foot, so
5*12=60 inches
Add the 7
60+7= 67 inches
So Breanna jumped 62, Myquisha 64 and Ariana 67
In order of shortest to longest:
Breanna, Myquisha, Ariana
Answer:
24 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a proportion:
3 inches/1.25 miles = x inches/10 miles
Then cross multiply
30=1.25x
Divide 1.25 on both sides
x=24
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is hard
That would be the square root of (5^2 + 5^2) = sqrt 50 = 7.07
