Consider this system of equations. x + 2y = 5,
–x + 3y = 6

The x- and y-intercepts of the first equation are found below.

x-intercept:

y-intercept:

x + 2(0) = 5
x = 5

(5, 0)

(0) + 2y = 5
2y = 5

y = 5
2
= 2.5

Find the intercepts for the equation –x + 3y = 6.

step-by-step explanation:

1 and 0

step-by-step explanation:

45.36 feet per second

step-by-step explanation:

tyrone travels 30 miles in 58.2 minutes.  

1 mile = 5280 feet; this means he travels

30(5280) = 158400 feet in 58.2 minutes.

1 minute = 60 seconds; this means he travels 158400 feet in

58.2(60) = 3492 seconds.

this gives us the unit rate of

158400/3492 = 45.36 feet per second.
