Energy is the correct answer
Ok, here we go:
5 cars total.
1. Rachel - first car in line, yellow, SUV
2. blue car (Rachel is in front of the blue car), convertible, Anton
3. minivan - third car in line, Diego
4. white car, sedan, Ingrid
5. green car, immediately behind white car, Yuna, pickup
We know that Rachel is first, a blue car is second and the minivan is third. We know that 3, 4 cannot be a convertible since one is a minivan and the other is a sedan. We also know that a yellow car is in front of the convertible.
Based off of that we know that car 5 cannot be a convertible since 4 is white and not yellow. So 1 or 2 is the convertible and SUV. But we know that Rachel is in front of a blue car and the yellow car is in front of a convertible so that makes car #2 the blue convertible and car #1 the yellow SUV.
Fill in what you do know and start to eliminate the outliers. Hope that helps.
Answer:
y = 6
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
rearrange the first equation in terms of x
x = (y - 2)/2
substiute x in the second equation
y = -5[(y-2)/2] +16
Now simpilify and solve for y
y = (-5y + 10)/2 +16
y = -5/2y + 5 + 16
y + 5/2y = 5 + 16
3.5y = 21
y = 6
Now substitue y in the first equation to solve for x
x = (6 - 2)/2
x = 2
