Answer:
The distance traveled in Duke Canal is one-fourth the distance traveled on Witham Lake
Step-by-step explanation:good luck


for example, let's look at the first set
y+3x =5 or y = -3x+ 5
and y = -3x + 2
y = m + b
the slopes are equal, the y-intercepts differ
that means, they're just parallel lines, no solution
Let t and p represent the numbers of turtles and pelicans, respectively.
... 2p + 4t = 114 . . . . . . . the number of legs is 114
... p + t = 34 . . . . . . . . . the number of animals is 34
Divide the first equation by 2 and subtract the second.
... (2p +4t)/2 - (p +t) = (114)/2 - 34
... t = 23 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
Then p = 34 - t = 11
There are 11 pelicans and 23 turtles.

You can get to the same answer by considering the number of legs you would have if all the animals were pelicans. That would be 34*2 = 68. The is 46 fewer legs than there actually are. Each turtle that replaces one of those 34 pelicans adds 2 legs to the total, so to add 46 legs, we must replace 46/2 = 23 pelicans with turtles. That is, there are 23 turtles and 11 pelicans.
This is a simple equation:)
We have to isolate "n" to be alone.
-21 = n - 8
First add 8 to both sides.
-21 = n - 8
+8 = + 8 it cancels out on the right side of the equal side and you solve on the left side
soooo
-21 + 8 = -13
-13 = n
Finally our answer is
-13 = n
When in doubt, eat a pineapple:)
7-3y=22
-7 -7
-3y=15
Divide by -3. y=-5
