So Angel hikes at 2.4 miles per hour. This says that in one hour he hikes 2.4 miles. In 1/3 of an hour then he would hike 1/3 of 2.4 miles, which is 2.4/3, or 0.8.
Answer:
9.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
15.5-6=9.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) 2x - 6y = -12
(2) x + 2y = 14
There is a -6y and a +2y. Since they have opposite signs, I'll try to eliminate the y terms. (That's my choice. There is more than one way to solve these.)
Multiply eq. (2) by 3:
3x + 6y = 42
Then add the result to eq. (1) to eliminate the y terms:
2x - 6y = -12
3x + 6y = 42
------------------
5x = 30, so x = 6
Now plug the value of x into eq. (2) and solve for y:
6 + 2y = 14
2y = 8
y = 4
Why did I use eq. (2) to solve for y? Because it's less work. I could have used eq. (1) instead:
2(6) - 6y = -12
12 - 6y = -12
-6y = -24
y = 4
More than one way to solve.
