A horse can run 1 3/8 of a mile in 1 3/5 minute. How long does it take the horse to run 1 mile?
So what i would personally do first is convert the fractions into decimals.
1 3/8= 11/8= 1.375 of a mile
1 3/5= 8/5 =1.6 of a minute
Now we find the rate of change
I
33/50 because it is biggest
Answer:
[12, 15]
Step-by-step explanation:
{6x + 5y = 147
{8x + 4y = 156
-¾[8x + 4y = 156]
{6x + 5y = 147
{-6x - 3y = -117 ← New Equation
________________
2y = 30
___ ___
2 2
y = 15 [Plug this back into both equations to get the x-coordinate of 12]; 12 = x
So, using the Elimination Method, what I did here was took the bottom equation and multiplied it by -¾, turning 8x to -6x, canceling out all <em>x-terms</em><em>.</em><em> </em>It does not matter which variable you choose to eliminate, as long as you know what you are doing.
I am joyous to assist you anytime.
