Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 3(x)≥15 →x≥5
Step-by-step explanation:
Set it up with x as the number of days. Then multiply that by 3, so that you get 3(x). This will show that for an x amount of days, you ran 3 miles. then set it to MORE THAN or EQUAL TO 15. Then divide both sides by 3, and you get the above answer.
In order to solve using elimination, we need to be able to get rid of one variable, so that we can solve for the other. We need to subtract these two equations given from one another, or multiply the bottom equation by a negative and add them together.
(-5x + 6y = 8) - (-5x + 4y = 2)
(-5x + 6y = 8) + (5x - 4y = -2)
0x + 2y = 6
2y = 6
y = 3
Now that we know the value of one variable, we can take that value and plug it back into one of the original equations and solve for the value of the other variable.
-5x + 6y = 8
-5x + 6(3) = 8
-5x + 18 = 8
-5x = -10
x = 2
The solution to this system of equations is (2, 3).
Hope this helps!! :)
