Answer:
x = 3, y = 1 is the solution of the given system.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the given system of equations is:
y = -x + 4 ...... (1)
y = x - 2 .......... (2)
Now, to find the solution of the system, SUBSTITUTE the value of y from equation (1) in to the equation (2). We get ,
y = x - 2 ⇒ -x + 4 = x - 2 ( as from (1), y = -x + 4)
or, -x -x = -2 -4
or, - 2 x = -6 ⇒ x = 6/2 = 3
or, x = 3
⇒ y = x - 2 = 3 - 2 = 1
⇒ y = 1
Hence, x = 3, y = 1 is the solution of the given system.
1 kilometer = 1000 meters so 12 kilometers = 12000 meters
10 laps (400 meters/lap) = 4000 meters
12000/4000 = 3
Answer: 3 days
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x-7y = -49
i) move x to the right-hand side and change its sign
-7y = -49-x
ii) change the signs on both sides of the equation
7y = 49+x
iii) divide both sides of the equation by 7
iv) use the commutative property to reorder the terms
* commutative property: a+b = b+a
Let d is the number of days of rental car
At Trinity's Tire World, $50 a day plus $75 fee: 50*d + 75
At India's Auto, $35 a day plus $105 fee: 35*d + 105
To find out after how many days, they both cost the same
50*d + 75 = 35*d + 105
50d + 35d = 105 - 75
15d = 30
d = 30/15
d = 2
Answer: after 2 days, they both cost the same amount of money
Proof:
50*d + 75 = 50*2 + 75 = 100 + 75 = 175
35*d + 105 = 35*2 + 105 = 70 + 105 = 175
Hope that helps
