Answer:
y = -1 and u = 3.333
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations are :
3u + y = 9 ...(1)
3u-5y = 15 ...(2)
Subtract equation (2) from (1).
3u + y-( 3u-5y)= 9 -15
y+5y = -6
6y = -6
y = -1
Put the value of y in equation (1).
3u + (-1) = 9
3u-1 = 9
3u = 10
u = 10/3
u = 3.333
The attached figure shows the graph for the above equations.
Answer:
40 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
In the attached diagram, Point A is the starting point and C is the end point. We want to determine the distance from A to C.
The path driven forms a right triangle in which AC is the hypotenuse.
We therefore use the<u> Pythagorean Theorem</u> to solve for the AC.
Pythagorean Theorem:
The straight line distance from the starting point is 40 miles.
