So,
We'll just use A to represent both Jan and Mya's miles, since they ran the same number.
We have the equations:
1. Jan (J) = Mya (M)
2. Sara (S) = M - 8
3. 2A + S = 64
J = M
S = M - 8
We'll just use A to represent both J and M.
S = M - 8
We'll use Elimination by Substitution.
2A + A - 8 = 64
Collect Like Terms
3A - 8 = 64
Add 8 to both sides
3A = 72
Divide both sides by 3
A = 24
Since
A = J
and
A = M
and
J = M
then
J = 24
M = 24
Substitute
S = 24 - 8
S = 16
Check
24 + 24 + 16 = 64
64 = 64 This checks.
So,
J = 24
M = 24
S = 16
Answer:
200
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 1
y = -2
Explanation:
First, solve for x by subtracting 7y from both sides of the first equation and then divide both sides by -5.
-5x + 7y = -19
-5x + 7y - 7y = -19 - 7y
-5x = -19 - 7y
-5x/ -5 = -19 - 7y/ -5
x = -19 - 7y/ -5
Next, substitute the value of x into the second equation and solve.
6 - (-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
Then, solve for y
- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
-6(-19 - 7y) - 10y = 50
114 + 42y - 10y = 50
144 + 32y = 50
32y = 50 - 144
32y = -64
32y/ 32 = -64/ 32
y = -2
Finally, substitute the value of y into the x value we found earlier and solve
x = - 19 - 7y/ 5
x = - 19 - 7 • -2/ 5
x = 1
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
I got C. 20 square units.
I could be wrong, but probably not. It was hard to figure out what the plot numbers were and the answer choices because the picture was super blurry. That's why I said I might be wrong.
Hope this helps!! :-)
