Answer:

x = - 2

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to do this is to put - 3x in for y in the second equation.

4x - 2(-3x) = - 20 Watch the signs. You have 2 minus signs.

4x - - 6x = -20 Change - - 6x to 6x

4x + 6x = - 20 Add

10x = - 20 Divide by 10

x = -20/10

x = - 2

============================

Find y

y = - 3x

y = -3 * -2

y = 6

Train a And train b leave Central Station at the same time they travel the same speed but in opposite direction with a train a h

kramer

Answer:

Both trains are traveling at 90 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the rate is the same for both trains, and we know that the distance traveled by train a plus the distance traveled by train b equals 585 miles.

We will use $Distance=Rate* Time$ formula to solve this problem.

Train A: $D_a=R*2.5$ (Using 2.5 instead of 2 and 1/2)

Train B: $D_b=R*4$

We can set an equation to solve for rate R of trains as:

$D_a+D_b=585$

$2.5R+4R=585$

$6.5 R=585$

$R=\frac{585}{6.5}$

$R=90$

Therefore, rate of both train a and train b is 90 miles per hour.
