First, you have to set up two equations.
X + y = 45
18x + 24y = 1,050
To do this, you have to solve for an exponent by cancelling out the other one. To solve for y, you multiply everything in the first equation by -18.
-18x -18y = -810
This cancels out the x and leaves you with 6y = 240. Divide both sides by 6 and you have the number of Yankee hats that were bought.
Then, you have to substitute 40 for y in the first equation and solve for x.
Answer:
<em>Scott will take 221 minutes to run 52 km</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Speed</u>
The speed of an object can be calculated with the formula:

Where d is the distance traveled and t is the time taken.
Scott can run d=20 km in 85 minutes. Thus, his speed is:

Now he wants to know how many minutes it will take him to run d=52 km. Solving the formula for t:

Since the speed has been already determined:

Multiplying by the reciprocal of the denominator:

t = 221 min
Scott will take 221 minutes to run 52 km
