Answer:
ok
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
95 city and 175 highway miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
The driver gets 20 mpg in city, and 28 mpg on the highway.
An equation that could be written is
20x+28y=270
This equation accounts for the distance traveled.
x+y=11
This equotion accounts for how many gallons were driven.
Multiply the bottom equation by 20, so you can solve the set of equations.
20x+28y=270
20x+20y=220
subtract them
8y=50
y=6.25
now plug this back into x+y=11
x+6.25=11
x=4.75
Now 4.75×20=95 city miles and 6.25×28=175 highway miles.
4y+2x=14 ==> multiply this 1st equation by (-1) => -4y-2x=-14
Now add it up to the 2nd equation
-4y-2x=-14
2y+2x=10
-------------- And now add them up
-2y +0x=-4
==> -2y=-4==> 2y = 4 & y=2
Last step: plug y into any equation & you will find x=3
Slope = (2 + 1) / (-5 - 10) = -3/15 = - 1/5
Equation
y - 2 = -1/5 (x + 5)
y - 2 = -1/5 x - 1
y = -1/5 x + 1
Answer
y = -1/5 x + 1
