Let

x-------> the time in hours

y------> the distance in miles

we know that

speed=distance/time-------> speed=y/x-------> equation 1

speed=5.5 miles/hour------> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2

y/x=5.5--------> y=5.5*x---------> this is the equation for the problem

  the distance that Andrew jogs will depend on the time spent

examples

a) if he runs for 2 hours,

then  

x=2 hours

y=5.5*2-------> y=11 miles          

b) if he runs for 3 hours,

then  

x=3 hours

y=5.5*3-------> y=16.5 miles        

c) if he runs for 30 minutes

then  

30 minutes=0.5 hours

x=0.5 hours

y=5.5*0.5-------> y=2.75 miles

5a)

2x + 94 = 7x + 49 (vertical angles are equal)

2x - 7x = -94 + 49

-5x = -45

x = 9

Answer

9

5b)

4y + 7x + 49 = 180 (supplementary angles, sum = 180)

4y + 7(9) + 49 = 180

4y + 112 = 180

4y = 68

y = 17

Answer

17

6)

x = 6x - 290 (vertical angles are equal)

-5x = -290

  x = 58

Answer

58
