The correct answer is 224.
Solve for r in the first equation:
3(r+300) = 6
Use the distributive property:
3r + 900 = 6
Subtract 900 from both sides:
3r = -894
Divide both sides by 3:
r = -894 / 3
r = -298
Now you have r, replace r in the second equation and solve:
r +300 -2 =
-298 + 300 - 2 = 0
The answer is 0.
The sister catches up Jeff after 2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write Jeff's position and his sister position at time t using the following expressions:
- Jeff position:

where:
7 is the initial position of Jeff when his sister sarts chasing him
2.5 is Jeff's velocity (in miles/hour), so its position increases by 2.5 miles for each hour
t is the time measured in hours
- Sister position:

where
6 is the sister velocity (her position increases by 6 miles for every hour)
t is the time measured in hours
The sister catches up Jeff when the two positions are equal, so

And solving for t,

So, the sister catches Jeff after 2 hours.
