Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

ok let's look at these old farts.

alvin is 8 years older than elga, so elga needs 8 more years to be as old as Alvin is. AKA,

Alvin = Elga + 8

The sum of their ages is 78.

Alvin + Elga = 78

Now put the equations together,

(Elga + 8) + Elga = 78

2 * Elga = 70

Elga = 35

Therefore, Elga is 35 years old! So old !!

Now, since we know that 5.9 is the amount of miles per day, we need to determine how many miles per month.

Usually, there are 20 days...because of no weekdays

Multiply.

5.9 * 20 = 118

Final answer:- He runs 118 miles per month.

Is y=3x-5 and 6x=2y+10 a solution
iVinArrow [24]
Y=3x-5
y-3x=-5
Times 2 from both side
y(2)-3x(2)=-5(2)
2y-6x=-10
Times negative from both side
(-)2y-6x(-)=(-)-10
-2y+6x=10
or
6x-2y=10


6x=2y+10
6x-2y=10
Furthermore, we see that both equation have the same 6x-2y=10 which means that both of them have infinity solutions, not a solution. Hope it help!
