Hints: how far behind her will you be when you start (miles, not just hours). What equation then describes your position and your friend's position.
-x + 2y = 10
6y = -12x + 1
6y = -12x + 1
6 6
y = -2x + ¹/₆
-x + 2y = 10
-x + 2(-2x + ¹/₆) = 10
-x + 2(-2x) + 2(¹/₆) = 10
-x - 4x + ¹/₃ = 10
-5x + ¹/₃ = 10
- ¹/₃ - ¹/₃
-5x = 9²/₃
-5 -5
x = -1¹⁴/₁₅
y = -2x + ¹/₆
y = -2(-1¹⁴/₁₅) + ¹/₆
y = 3¹³/₁₅ + ¹/₆
y = 4¹/₃₀
(x, y) = (-1¹⁴/₁₅, 4¹/₃₀)
It is intersecting, making the answer equal to C.
5 5/8 of 7 1/2 is 3/4 so you would make 3/4 of the recipe.
Answer:
<h3><em>
315 red flowers</em></h3><h3><em>
420 white flowers</em></h3><h3><em>
315 yellow flowers</em></h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
1050 flowers
3/10 of them are red=> 3/10 *1050=3*105=315 red flowers
2/5, (or 4/10), are white =>4/10 * 1050=4*105=420 white flowers
=> 1050-(315+420)=1050-735=315 yellow flowers
