Question

GUYS PLEASE HELP

can y’all show me how you got 140

13. You and your business partner are mailing advertising flyers to your customers. You address
6 flyers each minute and have already done 80. Your partner addresses 4 flyers each minute
and has already done 100. Write a system of linear equations and use your calculator to find
=mx Hout how many minutes it will take for the two of you to have addressed an equal number of
flyers
1x11-24

Answer 1

10 minutes

Explanation:

Since you can do 6 flyers each minute, the rate would go at 6x, with x being minutes. You initially did 80, so the equation for you would be y=6x+80.

Your friend's equation would be y=4x+100, because he initially had 100 done and is now getting 4 done per minute.

If you put the 2 equations in your calculator, the intersection will happen at x=10, showing that you and your friend will have an equal number of flyers at 10 minutes.
