A. define the variables : a = abby's miles, j = james' miles

b. a = j + 4......j = a - 4

c. a + j = 28
    a = j + 4
    
 d. (j + 4) + j = 28
      2j + 4 = 28
      2j = 28 - 4
      2j = 24
       j = 24/2
       j = 12
  
       a = j + 4
       a = 12 + 4
       a = 16

e. check..
     a + j = 28
     16 + 12 = 28
      28 = 28 (correct)

solution is : abby's miles (a) = 16
                   james' miles (j) = 12

The diagram shows a triangle.
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

c=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle sum of a triangle is 180°

(19c+16)°+13c°+(17c+17)°=180°

collect the like terms i.e

19c+13c+17c+16+17=180°

49c°+33°=180°

49c°=180°-33°

49c°=147

dividing by 49 both sides

49c/49=147/49

c=3
