Answer:
Ran: 2.5hr
Biked: 1.5hr
Step-by-step explanation:
x = total hrs ran
y = total hrs biked
4 = total hours ran + biked
soo…..
x + y = 4hr
then you can convert that for solving y or x
Ex. x = 4-y or y = 4-x
Then just plug in either x or y
EQUATION: 5x + 13y = 32
Dont plug in both x or y at the same time. Pick one and solve
