Given that <span>In a canoe race, team a is traveling 6 miles per hour and is 2 miles ahead of team b.
Team b is also traveling 6 miles per hour. The teams continue
traveling at their current rates for the remainder of the race.
The system of
linear equations that represents this situation is given by
d = 6t + 2
d = 6t

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The solution is (-17,80.5) and (1,8.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation 1 :
Equation 2:
Substitute the value of y from equation 2 in equation 1
Equation 1 :
After substitution :
Substitute the value of x = -17
y = -4x+12.5
y = -4(-17)+12.5
y=80.5
Substitute the value of x = 1
y = -4(1)+12.5
y=8.5
Hence the solution is (-17,80.5) and (1,8.5)
