Ten hours after a runner and cyclist leave the house at the same time and head in the same direction, the cyclist is 150 miles ahead of the runner. If the cyclist's speed is seven mph more than twice the speed the speed of runner, find the speed of the runner and the cyclist.

Speed of runner:
mph

Speed of cyclist:
mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of runner be r and speed of cyclist be c

We have following equations based on the given

Simplifying first equation

Comparing this with second equation

And finding the value of c

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571

step-by-step explanation:

60

step-by-step explanation:

every triangle measures a total of 120 degrees. you have to find angle c. we know that isosceles triangles angles are equal. 60 degrees plus 60 degrees gives you 120.
