In order to use the elimination method, we have to multiply the equation by some number, so that one of the variable has the same coefficient.
For example, multiplying the first equation by 3 and the second by 2 gives the following, equivalent system:
Now, we can subtract the two equations, and we will cancel (eliminate) the x variable:
Now that y is known, plug it into one of the equations: for example, if we use the first one we get
Answer:
The distance she bikes is 11/6 times as much as the distance she runs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Alex bikes 2.75 miles, runs 1.5 miles. The distance she bikes is 2.75/1.5 times as much as the distance she runs.
The distance she bikes is 11/6 times as much as the distance she runs.
The answer is B because a rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction and 1.425 can be written as 1425/1000
