Question

An adventure crew takes a hike in the woods. The path of their hike is shown below. Write an expression to represent the total distance of the hike and then factor the expression. Side a is 4x+1 side b:5x+4 side c:6x+5 I need the total distance and the factor of the equation this is factoring by gcf

Answer 1

The total distance covered during hiking is 15x + 10

What is distance?

Distance is the amount of space between two points.

Given that  Side a is 4x+1 side b:5x+4 side c:6x+5, hence:

Total distance = side a + side b + side c

Total distance = 4x + 1 + 5x + 4 + 6x + 5 = 15x + 10

The factor of the total distance is:

15x + 10 = 0

15x = -10

x = -2/3

The total distance covered during hiking is 15x + 10
