Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:37.2 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Joel takes 81 sec for 14 mile long track

speed of joel \frac{14}{1.35} mi/min=10.37 mi/min

Jason takes 69 sec for 14 mi track

so jason speed is \frac{14}{1.15} mi/min=12.17 mi/min

if both starts from same spot in opposite direction then

\frac{x}{10.37}=\frac{14-x}{12.17}

where x is distance covered by Joel

then x=6.44 miles

therefore time required

t=\frac{6.44}{10.37}=0.621 min\approx 37.2 sec

PLS HELP 75 POINTSSSSSSSSS WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!!!!
Julli [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 4y = 9...........(1)

2x + 8y = 6..........(2)

Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 3

6x - 8y = 18.........(3)

6x + 24y = 18......(4)

Subtracting (3) from (4)

24y - (-8y) = 18 - 18

24y + 8y = 0

32y = 0

y = 0/32

y = 0

Substituting y = 0 into (1)

3y - 4y = 9

3y - 4(0) = 9

3y = 9

y = 9/3

y = 3
