Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2(x - 4) = 5x + x - 10

→ Expand the brackets

5x + 2x - 8 = 5x + x - 10

→ Collect the x terms

7x - 8 = 6x - 10

→ Minus 6x from both sides

x - 8 = -10

→ Add -8 to both sides

x = -2

Is (3,-2) a solution to the system below? How do you know?
cricket20 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

you know by using the x and y coordinates of the point in the equations and see, if both equations are still true.

if yes, it was a solution, and if just only one is false, then it was not a solution.

(3, -2) in

y + 4x = 10

5x - y = 13

so,

-2 + 4×3 = 10

-2 + 12 = 10

10 = 10 true

5×3 - (-2) = 13

15 + 2 = 13

17 = 13 false

so, it was NOT a solution.

Answer:

a) Junnie walked farther than Maurice

b) Junnie walked .62 miles farther than Maurice

Step-by-step explanation: Because speed times time equals distance, to find how far each person traveled you multiply their speed and time.

Distance=speed×time

Junnie:

2.5hrs×3.2mph=8 miles

Maurice:

1.8hrs×4.1mph=7.38 miles

8-7.38=.62 (the difference between the two)
