Step 1. Multiply first equation with -3 and the second one with 2. You'll get:
Step 2. Add both equations together. You'll get:
, which gives x = -2
Step 3. Replace x = -2 in the first equation and calculate y.
The solution is: x=-2, y=5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The line with points (1,2) and (-1,-8). Work out its equation.</u>
<u>The slope is:</u>
- m = (-8 - 2)/(-1 - 1) = -10/-2 = 5
<u>To find the y intercept, substitute x and y-xoordinates of point (1,2):</u>
- 2 = 5(1) + b
- b = 2 - 5
- b = -3
<u>The line is:</u>
<u>Point (x, 17), substitute y-coordinate and solve for x</u>
- 17 = 5x - 3
- 5x = 17 + 3
- 5x = 20
- x = 20/5
- x = 4
Answer:
23 11/12 yards or 23.9166 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 of 100 yard race is equivalent to 66 2/3 yards. Tge difference between the above and 42 3/4 yards covered by tortoise will be
66 2/3- 42 3/4= 23 11/12 yards or 23.91666 yards
