(3a) some boats were traveling up and down a river. a satellite recorded the movements of several boats. a motor boat traveled -3.4 miles per hour for 0.75 hours. how far did it go?
(3b) some boats were traveling up and down a river. a satellite recorded the movements of several boats. a tugboat traveled -1.5 miles in 0.3 hours. what was its velocity?

Ifound this on google “a skewed (non-symmetric) distribution is a distribution in which there is no such mirror-imaging. a "skewed right" distribution is one in which the tail is on the right side. a "skewed left" distribution is one in which the tail is on the left side. the above histogram is for a distribution that is skewed right.” i hope this you for what your looking for

So the first thing we do is to multiply the top equation by 3. the reason i want to do this is i notice there will be a 6y on both equations and can possibly add/subtract them. so we get 6y = -3x + 27. adding that and the second equation we get 6x = 27-15 which is 12. divide by 6 and we get 2. ∴ x = 2. substituting 2 into the first equation we get 2y = -2 + 9 which is 7. divide by 2 and we get 7/2. ∴ y = 7/2, x = 2.
