The first Indianapolis 500 auto race took place in 1911. The winning car covered the 500 miles in 6.7 hours. What was the winning car’s average speed in miles per hour?

given the equation is 8+9z=-6, the first step would be to subtract the 8 from both sides:

8+9z-8=-6-8

since 8 minus 8 = 0, this would cancel out the 8. and since -6 minus 8 equals -14, the equation would look like this

9z = -14

(x,y) it'll always be like that.

in this case x is grams and y is ounces.

if there were numbers there, like (5,3)

x would be 5 and y would be 3.
