Looooking for x so the answer is
X=7
1) 2x + 3y = 12 -> 3y = -2x +12 -> y = -2/3x + 4
2) 4y - 7x = 16 -> 4y = 7x + 16 -> y = 7/4x + 4
Lol
trouble varies directly as distance
lets say t=trouble and d=distance
t=kd
k is constant
given
when t=20, and d=400
find k
20=400k
divide by 400 both sides
1/20=k
t=(1/20)d
given, d=60
find t
t=(1/20)60
t=60/20
t=3
3 troubles
A=7 is what I got since this was a equation problem
