Answer:

x = 0.667 and y = -0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

6x + 5y = 1 ....(1)

6x - 5y = 7 ...(2)

We need to solve the above equations.

Subtract equations (1) and (2)

6x + 5y -(6x - 5y) = 1-7

6x+5y-6x+5y = -6

10y=-6

y = -0.6

Put the value of y in equation (1).

6x + 5(-0.6) = 1

6x = 1-5(-0.6)

6x = 4

x = 0.667

Hence, first step is to subtract equation (1) and (2) then put the value of y in equation (1).

Jacob and Ali want to run from one corner of a football field to the opposite corner. The rectangular football field is 50 yards
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Jacob ran 40 yards more than Ali.

Step-by-step explanation:

Football field is in the shape of a rectangle having dimensions 120 yards × 50 yards

Since Jacob runs around the perimeter of the field from one corner to other corner, therefore, distance run by Jacob = (\text{Length+width})

Distance run by Jacob = 50 + 120 = 170 yards

Ali runs through the middle of the field diagonally on a straight line.

Therefore, distance covered by Ali = \sqrt{\text{length}^{2}+\text{width}^{2}}

= \sqrt{(50)^{2}+(120)^{2}}

= \sqrt{2500+14400}

= \sqrt{16900}

= 130 yards

Now difference between the distance covered by Jacob and Ali

= 170 - 130

= 40 yards

Therefore, Jacob ran 40 yards more than Ali.

Making a list helps organize the information in a word problem that can otherwise be overwhelming and confusing. Making lists put out a straightforward guide and help you break down the problem so you really understand what you need to do. 
Word problem:
Maya has $55 and she gives her brother $10. She also gives her friend $15 and her sister $5. Her sister pays her back fully but her brother only pays back half of what he owed, promising to pay her back later. Her friend gives back 1/3 of what she owed, also promising to pay her back as soon as she can. How much money does Maya currently have?

In this problem, you have to process the money transactions and making a list will help you go step by step.
