Answer 6

here is the answer for the first question:You have the formula,
Velocity=distance/time
hence we'll use that to solve for the velocity of both Cars A and B
since Car A traveled for 2.4 hours, then we'll have
Va = d/2.4 -----equation 1
since Car B traveled for 4 hours, then,
Vb = d/4 -----equation 2
NOTE that the distance traveled by Cars A and B are equal
getting the distance from equations 1 & 2
Va = d/2.4
d=2.4Va -------equation 3
Vb = d/4
d=4Vb -------equation 4
since distance of A and B are equal then we can equate equations 3&4
2.4Va=4Vb ------equation 5
The problem states that Car A traveled 22mph faster than car B.
Therefore we'll have the equation as:
Va=Vb+22 -------equation 6
substituting equation 6 to equation 5 we'll have
2.4Va=4Vb
2.4(Vb+22)=4Vb
2.4Vb +22(2.4)=4Vb
4Vb-2.4Vb=52.8
1.6Vb=52.8
Vb=33mph
substituting Vb to equation 6
Va=Vb+22
Va=33+22
Va=55mph

thanks

Answer 8

you will have to set this up into two equations and then use substitution or elimination. so the first equation would be 18x+19=y can you figure out the second equation from here?

Answer 9

this is for the second question
