Question

For a weekend trip, you are average driving 35 miles per hour in the city and 60 miles per hour on the highway. If the 150 mike trip took 3 hours, how much of the time were you driving in the city

Answer 1

x +y =3 | -35
x*35+y*60=150
-35x -35y=-105

/ 25y=45
y=45/25=9/5=1,8 hours
x=3-1,8=1,2 hours
the answer is 1,2 hours
