Answer:
x= 7.5 mile/h
y= 3.5 miles / h
Step-by-step explanation:
Given x and y
so, x+y = speed down river
and x-y= speed up river
using
travel time = distance / speed for each case;
we get;
22/x+y=2 ---(1)
and
22/x-y=5.5 -----(2)
Solving equations simultaneously
eq 1 gives
2x+2y=22 ---(3)
eq 2 gives
5.5x-5.5y=22 ----(4)
Multiply eq 3 by 2.75
==> 5.5x+5.5y=60.5 --- (5)
adding eq 4 with eq 5
==> 11x =82.5
==> x= 7.5 miles/h
put this value in eq 3
==> 2(7.5)+2y=22
==> 2y=22-19.8
==> 2y=7
==> y = 3.5
Slope intercept form
y = mx + b
-2x + 5y = 10
5y = 2x + 10
Divide by 5
y = 2/5x + 2
Answer: not 100 percent sure but i think x=37 z=110 y=33
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to subtract both sides by 64 and you will get,
-50 = 5z. Then divide both sides by 5, and you get -10 = z.
