The answer is C since we can solve for y in the first equation by subtracting 36 on both sides which gives us 66. Therefore we know that y= 66 and can plug it into the following equation which is 66+14 = 80

Natalija [7]

Well first you have find out how many miles she drove in march. To find that you have to divide 825 by 3. That equals 275. Well if she drove 4 times more you take 275 x 4 and that equals 1100. She drove 1100 miles.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know is that A + S = 111. That is, the miles Andre drove plus the miles Scott drove totalled 111 miles. What we also know is that Scott drove quite a bit more than Andre did. Scott drove 7 miles more that ( +7 ) 3 times the number of miles Andrea drove. That looks like this algebraically:

S = 3A + 7

Now we can sub in that value for S to the original equation:

If A + S = 111 and S = 3A + 7, then

A + 3A + 7 = 111 and

4A + 7 = 111 and

4A = 104 so

A = 26 and

S = 3(26) + 7 so

S = 85 miles.

Scott drove 85 miles.
