1. Malcolm enters an 80km ultra-marathon race. His walking speed is 8km/h and running speed is 10km/h. Let x=hours walked and y=hours run.
2. The linear equation relating x and y is 8x + 10y = 80.
3. If Malcolm walked the entire race, it would take him 10 hours. If he ran the entire race, it would take 8 hours.
4. If he walks for 6 hours, he will need to run for 3.2 hours to complete the 80km race.
In Mathematics, number patterns are the patterns
in which a list number follows a certain sequence. Generally, the patterns establish the relationship between two numbers. It is also known as the sequence of series in numbers.

Joely's Tea Shop, a store that specializes in tea blends, has available 45 pounds of A grade tea and 70 pounds of B grade tea. These will be blended into 1 pound packages as follows: A breakfast blend that contains one third of a pound of A grade tea and two thirds of a pound of B grade tea and an afternoon tea that contains one half pound of A grade tea and one half pound of B grade tea. If Joely makes a profit of $1.50 on each pound of the breakfast blend and $2.00 profit on each pound of the afternoon blend, how many pounds of each blend should she make to maximize profits? What is the maximum profit?

Solve the system by the substitution method. Show your work.
2y - x = 5
x2 + y2 - 25 = 0
x:
2y - x = 5
2y - 5 = x
so x = 2y - 5
-Plug this into 2nd equation:
(2y - 5)² + y² - 25 = 0
-Use FOIL to solve the (2y - 5)² part:
(2y - 5)(2y - 5)
4y² - 10y - 10y + 25
4y² - 20y + 25
So :
4y² - 20y + 25 + y² - 25 = 0
Which can be simplified to:
4y² + y² - 20y = 0
4y² + y² - 20y = 0
y(4y + y - 20) = 0
So, because of the 0 multiplication rule,
y=0
x= -5 (plug in y=0 to original equations:
2y - x = 5
2(0) - x = 5, so x= -5)
(-5,0)
Y(4y+y-20)=0
So, y=0 or 4y+y-20=0
5y-20=0
Y=4
X=2y-5 when y=4
X=8-5=3
(-5,0) (3,4)
