Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

x=blue

y=white

x+y=40

30x+20y=920

30(x+y=40) ; 30x+30y=1200___[1]

30x+20y=920 ; 30x+20y=920___[2]

[1]-[2] : 30x+30y-30x-20y=1200-920

       10y=280

       y=28

painter buys 28 white gallons

Fabio is driving west away from Albany and towards buffalo along interstate 90 at a constant rate of speed of 62 miles per hour.
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The distance between Albany and Buffalo along the I90 is 288.8 mi.

The speed of Fabio is 62 mph.

After 1.5 hours, he is 221 miles from Albany.

Things we can calculate here:

Using the relation:

Distance = time*speed.

We can calculate the number of miles that he moved in that 1.5 hours.

D = 62mph*1.5h = 93mi.

If after 1.5 hours, he was 221 miles Albany, then before that he was 93 miles closer to Albany.

His initial position was:

221 - 93 = 128 miles away from Albany.

Now we also can calculate the time left to arrive at Buffalo.

We know that the distance between Albany and Buffalo is 288.8 mi

And he is 221 mi away from Albany.

Then the distance left to Buffalo is:

288.8mi - 221mi = 67.8mi

And the time left will be:

Distance/speed = time

67.8mi/62mph = 1.1 hours.

He needs to drive for another 1.1 hours to get to Buffalo.

The table can be used to determine the solution to the system of equations, 2y − x = 8, and y − 2x = −5. Which solution can be u
SIZIF [17.4K]
The answer is (6, 7)

This is the system of two equations:
<span>2y − x = 8
y − 2x = −5
_____
Express the second equation in the term of y:
2y - x = 8
y = 2x - 5
_____
Substitute y in the first equation:
2(2x - 5) - x = 8
4x - 10 - x = 8
4x - x = 10 + 8
3x = 18
x = 18/3
x = 6

Since x = 6 and y = 2x - 5, then:
y = 2 * 6 - 5 
y = 12 - 5
y = 7

Therefore, (x, y) = (6, 7)</span>
