A cross-country team had a total of 10 practices last week, with each practice being in the morning or the afternoon. During each morning practice, they ran 5 miles, and during each afternoon practice, they ran 6 miles. If they ran a total of 57 miles last week, how many morning practices did they have?

Respuesta :

x= morning

y = afternoon

 x + y = 10

x=10-y

5x + 6y =57

5(10-y) +6y =57

50-5y +6y =57

y=7

x=10-7 =3

 check 3*5 = 15, 7*6 = 42, 42 + 15 = 57


3 morning practices
