Question

Write a system of two linear equations showing the distance each animal can

travel to model the fair race. Be sure to define all variables.
Y= output (distance) 5 mile lion/ 2.5 mile elephant
M=slope (speed) 50 lion /25 elephant
X=input(time) 6 minutes both

Answer 1

5=50(6)+b

2.5=25(6)+b

Explanation:

The formula: y=mx+b

now you input the numbers

5=50(6)+b. B= -295

2.5=25(6)+b. B= -147.5
