40 minutes is 2/3 of an hour.
30 miles per hour x 2/3 hour = 20 miles.
30 minutes = 1/2 hour.
60 miles per hour x 1/2 hour = 30 miles.
Total = 20 + 30 = 50 miles.
Answer: The solution is (3, -2)
This means that x = 3 and y = -2 pair up together.
=====================================================
Explanation:
The solution is where the two lines cross. Note if we started at the origin (0,0) and moved to the right 3 units, and then down 2 units, we would arrive at the location (3, -2).
-----------------
As a way to check, we can plug x = 3 into each equation. We should get y = -2 as a result for each equation
y = (-5/3)x + 3
y = (-5/3)*3 + 3
y = -5+3
y = -2
The first equation is confirmed. Let's check the second equation
y = (1/3)x - 3
y = (1/3)*3 - 3
y = 1 - 3
y = -2
Both equations have the y value equal -2 when x = 3. Therefore, the overall solution is confirmed.
1. Perimeter
22a + 2(6a + 8) -4 = p
[I got 22a from 12a + 10a]
2. If p = 250, what is a?
22a + 2(6a + 8) - 4 = 250
Distributive property
22a + 12a + 16 - 4 = 250
Add like terms
34a + 12 = 250
Subtract 12 by both sides
34a = 238
Divide 34 by both sides
a = 7
