By definition, the speed is given by the quotient between the distance traveled and the time it takes to travel that distance. We have then that the expression for speed is as follows
v = d / t
where
d: distance
t: time
Substituting
v = (90feet) / (5s) = 18feets / s
answer
the average rate of the airplane model, in feet per second was 18feets / s
X=-1 and y=3
To solve this, because y is equal to 2x+5, you can substitute 2x+5 into the bottom equation for y.
You now have 3x - (2x + 5) =-6
This can be solved like a normal equation. Multiply each term in the parenthesis by -1.
3x - 2x - 5 = -6
Subtract 2x from 3x
x - 5 = -6
Add 5 to both sides
x=-1
Now you can solve for y by plugging -1 in for x in either equation. Im going to use the top one.
y= 2(-1)+5
y= -2+5
y=3
You can check your answer by plugging in the values for x and y into both equations and making sure both sides equal each other.
