The temperature 6 hours after day break is 53 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The temperature was 65 degrees at daybreak. Then it dropped two degrees per hour until dusk. This decrease in temperature can be modeled by the equation,
y = -2x + 65
according to this equation
y= temperature after day break
x= no of hours ( in this case 6)
So equation becomes
y= -2 (6) +65
y= 65- 12
y= 53 degrees
So the temperature 6 hours after day break is 53 degrees

Basically you're solving for both variables here.
I prefer elimination method so that is what I used.
I started off by multiplying each equation in order to get one of the variables at the same value so it would be possible to cancel it out.
Multiplying the first equation by 3 gave me,
12x + 15y = 69
Then I multiplied the second equation by 4,
-12x + 28y = -56
As you can see, it's not possible to cancel out the x variable.
12x + 15y = 69
+(-12x + 28y = -56)
_____________
13y = 13
Then just solve for y which gives you -1.
After you have one variable solved simply insert it into one of the original equations to find the other variable.
4x + 5(-1) = 23
4x - 5 = 23
4x = 28
x = 7.
And there you have it! Hope this helped!
I believe you are correct y< x/2 but i am not sure
