To answer this question, you will represent the amount of yards rushed by each running back.

x - Running back #1
9x - Running back #2

The combined yards was 1550, so put these together in an addition equation with a total of 1550.  Solve for x.

x + 9x = 1550
10x = 1550
x = 155

Running back #1 rushed 155 yards, and running back #2 rushed for 1395 yards.

an indy car driver has to be a certain height to fit into the race car. The following inequality 175<=3x-17<=187, where x
enot [183]

Given inequality : 175 ≤ 3x-17 ≤ 187, where x represents the height of the driver in inches.

Let us solve the inequality for x.

We have 17 is being subtracted in the middle.

Reverse operation of subtraction is addition. So, adding 17 on both sides and also in the middle, we get

175+17 ≤ 3x-17+17 ≤ 187+17

192  ≤ 3x ≤ 204.

Dividing by 3.

192/3  ≤ 3x/3 ≤ 204/3.

64 ≤ x ≤ 68.

Therefore, the height of the driver should be from 64 to 68 inches  to fit into the race car.
