Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to set each runner's plan equal to each other because they are equal in the end. You start with 7 miles for Angelo and 4 miles for Marc.
x is a variable that is multiplied by the number of weeks it takes for both runners' distances to be equal. So multiply x by the miles increased every week.
Marc = Angelo
2x + 4 = x + 7
x = 3
In 3 weeks each runner will run 10 miles for the week.
(5x-3)/4 = x/3 +1
5x-3 = 4x/3 +4
5x - 4x/3 = 7
(11/3)x = 7
x = 7/(11/3) = 21/11
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we add up two polynomials shown.
The polynomials are:
![[-m^2 + 6]+[-4m^2 +7m + 2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B-m%5E2%20%2B%206%5D%2B%5B-4m%5E2%20%2B7m%20%2B%202%5D)
In order to add up the 2 polynomials shown, we have to see the "like terms" and add them up.
We add up the "
" terms and the constant (number) terms. There is one term with "m", so we leave it like that. Let's add up. Shown below:\
![[-m^2 + 6]+[-4m^2 +7m + 2]\\=-m^2-4m^2+6+2+7m\\=-5m^2+7m+8](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B-m%5E2%20%2B%206%5D%2B%5B-4m%5E2%20%2B7m%20%2B%202%5D%5C%5C%3D-m%5E2-4m%5E2%2B6%2B2%2B7m%5C%5C%3D-5m%5E2%2B7m%2B8)
This is the sum of the 2 polynomials shown:
