Answer:

Equations:

y =  14 + 9 x --- Cindy

y = 10 x --- Ruben

Solution to equation:

Time they have the same amount: 14 minutes

Number of cards they have at that time: 140 flashcards

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): Variables and what they represent

The variables to use are x and y

Where x represent the minutes and y represents the number of flashcards in x minutes

Solving (b): System of linear equation

Cindy:

Existing\ Flashcards = 14

Additional = 9 per minute

Total number of flashcards (y) in x minutes is:

y =  Existing\ Flashcards + Additional * x

y =  14 + 9 * x

y =  14 + 9 x

Ruben:

Rate = 10 per minute

Total number of flashcards (y) in x minutes is:

y = Rate * x

y = 10 * x

y = 10 x

Solution to Equations:

Time they have the same amount.

To do this, we equate both expressions

i.e.

10x = 14 + 9x

Collect Like Terms

10x - 9x = 14

x = 14

Number of cards they have at that time.

Here, we simply substitute 14 for x in any of the equations.

y = 10 x

y = 10 * 14

y = 140

or

y =  14 + 9 x

y = 14 + 9 * 14

y = 14 + 126

y = 140

What is the correct answer
tiny-mole [99]
Take a look at all 3 expressions: numbers, terms, and exponents.

4, 8, and 6 all have a GCF of 2.

y^5, y^3, and y^2 have a GCF of y^2.

Therefore, the GCF is 2y^2. Removing it gets you:

2y^2(2y^3 + 4y - 3)

Which equation is the result of subtracting the second equation from the first?
rewona [7]

Answer:

the answer is

-x-8y=8

or, x + 8y= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 6y = 13 - (5x + 2y = 5)

or, 4x - 6y = 13

- 5x - 2y = -5

-------------------------

- x - 8y = 8
