Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1 - 6x = - 17 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

- 6x = - 18 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = 3

I know the distance from me to my destination. I ,also, know how many miles per hour, I'm going. How do I find out how long it w

MissTica

You simply need to devide the distance by the speed to get the time, so: 600÷50= 12hrs
This is only if you drive the same speed rhe whole way and do not stop. If you stopped you need to add the delay to the time.
For example: if you delayed 20 min altogether you need to add 12:00+00:20= 12:20.

Solve the system by the substitution method.

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations

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

y=-3x+8.------------------------------(2)

Substitute 2 in 1. This means use the value of y in equation 1, to replace y

x-3(-3x+8)=-4------------------open brackets

x+9x-24=-4---------------------collect like terms

10x=-4+24

10x=20---------------------------divide by 10 both sides to get value of x

10x/10=20/10=2

x=2------------------------------use value of x in equation (2) to get value of y

y=-3x+8

y=-3(2)+8

y=-6+8=2

solutions

x=2, y=2
