I think the total is 190 miles they have traveled but don’t trust me I think it is
7x-4=3x+ 8
-3x of both sides 4x-4=8
plus 4 to both sides 4x=12
12 divide by 4 = 3
hopeful that helps
In order to determine the value of x, consider that one of the interior angles of the triangle is given by:
180 - (4x - 18)
= 180 - 4x + 18
= 198 - 4x
Next, consider that the sum of the interioir angles of a triangle is equal to 180:
(2x + 6) + 36 + (198 - 4x)
= 2x + 6 + 36 + 198 - 4x
= -2x + 240
this is equal to 180:
-2x + 240 = 180
-2x = 180 - 240
-2x = -60
x = 60/2
x = 30
Hence, the value of x is x = 30
Remember that ratios are essentially fractions without fraction bars...
If they asked to find the ration of 19.50 to 16.25 you would set them up like so....
19.50 : 16.25 -----> since fractions can be simplified so can ratios in the same manner
the ratio you would end up with is <u>6 : 5</u><u />
Ratios can be easily remembered and solved if you understand the link between them and fractions.
I hope this helps! :D
