Question 618716: There are two airplanes: plane A and plane B. They travel in opposite directions and they leave an airport at the same time. One plane travels 65km/h slower than the other. If the two planes are 3,438km apart after 2 hours, what is the rate of each plane?
3,438/2
=1719
1719-65=1654
One plane 1719 and the other 1654

Question 619449: Solve the following system by substitution.
x=7y+24
x=(7/4)y
My work:
(7/4)y = 7y+24
multiply each side by 4
7y=28y+96
divide by 7
y= 4y+(96/7)
move the Y and 96/7 to the other side
-(96/7) = 3y
I've multiplied 7 on both sides and then divided -672 = 21y which equals to -32
then input the -32 like this
x=7(-32)+24
x=-200
but on the second equation it does not match
x=(7/4)(-32)
x=-56
and here are my choices:
A. The solution set is {( _, _)} (Type an ordered pair)
B. The system has dependent equations. The solution set is {x,y)| _____}
c. The system is inconsisten. The solution set is undefined.
