-5x + y = -5.....multiply by -2
-4x + 2y = 2
---------------
10x - 2y = 10 (result of multiplying by -2)
-4x + 2y = 2
-----------------add
6x = 12
x = 12/6
x = 2
-5x + y = -5
-5(2) + y = -5
-10 + y = -5
y = -5 + 10
y = 5
solution is (2,5)
Answer:
The price of hot dog is $2.5 and that of a pretzel is $1.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of hotdogs be x and that of pretzels be x.
So,
4x+3y = 13.75 ...(1)
and
2x+5y = 11.25 ...(2)
Multiply equation (2) by 2.
4x+10y = 22.5 ...(3)
Subtract equation (1) from (3).
4x+10y-(4x+3y) = 22.5-13.75
4x+10y-4x-3y = 8.75
7y = 8.75
y = 1.25
Put the value of y in equation (1).
4x+3(1.25) = 13.75
4x+3.75 = 13.75
4x = 13.75-3.75
4x = 10
x = 2.5
So, the price of hot dog is $2.5 and that of a pretzel is $1.25.

Answer:
The first ship has the same speed as Saige's ship while the second and third do not have the same speed.
Step-by-step explanation:
d = Distance traveled by Saige's spaceship = 588 km
t = Time taken = 60 seconds
Speed is given by
The other ships
So, the first ship has the same speed as Saige's ship while the second and third do not have the same speed.
