Answer:
3x +4y = 118
5x+6y =180
y= $25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the cost of a flashlight
Let y = the cost of a sleeping bag
3x +4y = 118
5x+6y =180
Multiply the first equation by -5
-5(3x +4y) = -5*118
-15x -20y = -590
Multiply the second equation by 3
3(5x+6y) =3*180
15x + 18y = 540
Add the modified equations together.
We are using elimination to eliminate the variable x
-15x -20y = -590
15x + 18y = 540
----------------------------
-2y = -50
Divide by -2
-2y/-2 = -50/-2
y =25
Each sleeping bag costs $25

Answer:
ok so lets work this out
Step-by-step : 10/12 is closer to 12 than 7/12 soooo its not any of the ones that have these (:) and 10 is bigger than 7 so its
7/12 < 10/12
Answer:
Rate or speed=3 Miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Brad walked 2.5 miles in 5/6 of an hour.
Distance covered by Brad = 2.5 miles
Distance covered by Brad= 2 1/2 miles
Distance covered by Brad= 5/2 miles
Time taken to cover the distance = 5/6 of an hour
His rate of walking or how fast he walks is determined by the formula
Rate or speed= distance/time
Rate or speed=( 5/2)/(5/6)
Rate or speed= (5/2)*(6/5)
Rate or speed=6/2
Rate or speed=3 Miles per hour
