Answer:
x1 = 275 miles (shorter)
x2 = 318 miles (longer)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x1 = be the shorter route
v1 = speed of the car in the shorter route
t1 = time it took to cover shorter route
x2 = the longer route
v2 = speed of the car in the longer route
t2 = time it took to cover longer route
x1 + 43 = x2 (1)
v2 = v1 -2 (2)
v2 = x2/t2 = x2/6
v1 = x1/t1 = x1/5
This means that
v2 = v1 -2 =>
x2/6 = x1/5 -2
The system of equations results
a. x1 -x2 = -43
b. x1/5 - x2/6 = 2
Solving this system of equations, we find that
x1 = 275 miles
x2 = 318 miles

Hope this helps
-6x + 3 + x - 7...when ur adding expressions such as this, and there is a plus sign in between them, the parenthesis are not needed.
we now combine like terms...
-6x + x = -5x
3 - 7 = -4
and we are left with : -5x - 4 <==
