Are you missing something?
2xy=7
5xy=9
does not have a solution.
If you mean
2x+y=7
5x+y=9
please say so.
Here's what you need to know in order to answer this:
1 gallon = 128 fl oz
and
1 day = 24 hours.
Use those facts to invent fractions equal to ' 1 '.
Then use those to change the units of the "11 fl oz per hour".
You can multiply them ... since their value is ' 1 ', they won't
change the value of the "11 fl oz per hour", only the units.
(11 fl oz/hr) x (24 hr/da) x (1 gal / 128 fl oz)
= (11 x 24 x 1 / 128) (fl-oz - hr - gal) / (hr - da - fl-oz)
= 2.0625 gal/da

Call x the distance from home plate to second base.
There is a right triangle formed by homeplate, first base and second base. The sides of this triangle are 80 feet and 80 feet. The hypothenuse meets Pythagoras theorem:
x^2 = 80^2 + 80^2 = 2(80)^2
x = 80√2
Then the answer is the option D.
