Answer:
(-19 , -7)
Step-by-step explanation:
y - x = 12
y + x = -25 we sum them to get
2y = -14 , y = -7
then we put -7 instead of y in any of the equations:
-7 - x = 12
-x = 19
x = -19,
finally (x , y) is (-19 , -7)
Let
x----------> number of weeks
y----------> saved money
we now that
<span>Michael begins with $20 and saves $5 per week
so
y=20+5x------> equation 1
and
</span><span>Lindsey begins with no money, but saves $10 per week
</span><span>y=10x-------> equation 2
</span><span>the number of weeks it will take for Lindsey and Michael to save the same amount of money is when equation 1 is equals to equation 2
</span>
therefore
20+5x=10x------> 10x-5x=20------> 5x=20-----> x=20/5-----> x=4 weeks
the answer is
4 weeks
Multiply 240 by 5 to get 1200 miles then add the 40 from the first day so it took 5 days
