Answer:
a. 12 minutes
b. 34 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are told that Ima has driven 5 minutes before Polly started driving
So if Ima has driven for x minutes , polly would have driven for y minutes but the difference between x and y is 5
So mathematically;
x = y + 5
a. 17 = y + 5
y = 17-5 = 12 minutes
b. x = 29 + 5
x = 34 minutes
Let's see all the steps:
1) operation : 5 options
2) only one option: we ignore it
3) the third operation: 6 options
4): 2 options.
So we have 5 options, 6 options and 2 options: and they are independent of each other. This means that we multiply the numbers, and 5*6*2=60 So the answer is 60!

Answer:
x = 4
y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 10y = -16
-x -4y = 4 <-- ( multiplied x+4y=-4 with -1 so the x's cancel)
6y = -12
y = -2
put -2 back in the equation to get x
x + 10y = -16
x -20 = -16
x = 4
