I need help with this problem down below

Answer:

$y = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$y = \frac{7x + 1}{3x - 6}$ ,

To find the value of y, let's find x by solving 3x = 15.

3x = 15

Divide both sides by 3

x = 15/3

x = 5

Plug in the value of x into $y = \frac{7x + 1}{3x - 6}$

$y = \frac{7(5) + 1}{3(5) - 6}$

$y = \frac{35 + 1}{15 - 6}$

$y = \frac{36}{9}$

$y = 4$

Nancy leaves the school and drives toward her town at 27 mph. greg leaves the same school 2 hours later and drives the same rout

Paul [167]

Nancy's rate=27 mph
Greg's rate=45 mph
t=Greg's time
t+2=Nancy's time
Since they both traveled same distance then:
27(t+2)=45t
27t+54=45t
18t=54
t=3 hours
Greg will pass Nancy after 3 hours
