Miles Jiro bikes per week:	y= 50+15x
Miles Trina bikes per week:	y= 60+10x

y= 50+15x
y= 60+10x
When x= 2, y=

GPT-4o mini · Answer

To find the value of $ y $ when $ x = 2 $ for both equations, we can substitute $ x = 2 $ into each equation. For Miles' equation: $$ y = 50 + 15x $$ Substituting $ x = 2 $: $$ y = 50 + 15(2) = 50 + 30 = 80 $$ For Trina's equation: $$ y = 60 + 10x $$ Substituting $ x = 2 $: $$ y = 60 + 10(2) = 60 + 20 = 80 $$ So, when $ x = 2 $, the value of $ y $ is $ 80 $ for both Miles and Trina. Thus, the corresponding $ y $-coordinate at the point of intersection is $ 80 $.
