Answer:

Distance rode by Jamey per day in his bike = 12.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamey rides his bike the same distance each day while training for a race. He also jogs 3.4 miles per day.

Distance ran by Jamey per day = 3.4 miles

During 5 days of training, he bikes and jogs a total of 80 miles.

Total distance covered in 5 days = 80 miles

Total distance covered in 5 days = Distance ran by Jamey in 5 days + Distance rode by Jamey in 5 days

Distance ran by Jamey in 5 days = 5 x 3.4 = 17 miles

80 = 17 + Distance rode by Jamey in 5 days

Distance rode by Jamey in 5 days = 80 - 17 = 63 miles

$\texttt{Distance rode by Jamey per day }=\frac{63}{5}=12.6miles$

Distance rode by Jamey per day in his bike = 12.6 miles

Answer:

12.6 !

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 80

x being how many miles he bikes

y being how many miles he jogs

substitute y with 17 because 3.4 (miles) x 5 (days) is 17 miles for those 5 days

so now its x + 17 = 80

subtract 17 from 80 and 17 from itself

x = 63. now divide 63 by 5 (days) to get 12.6 :)

The ratio of white flour to whole wheat flour in a bread recipe is 2:3. The recipe uses 60 cups of flour. How much white flour i

luda_lava [24]

So white flour to whole wheat is 2:3, and wheat flour is 60 cups.

Lets put it this way, 2 white flour = 3 wheat flour
If we have 60 cups of wheat flour, we are multiplying the above equation by 20 to get 3 x 20 - 60 cups of wheat flour.

2 white flour = 3 wheat flour (times 20 is 60, which is what they're asking)

Now we need to multiply 20 on both sides, because what you do on one side must be done to the other.

2 white flour = 3 wheat flour
x 20 x 20

40 white flour = 60 wheat flour

The final answer should be 40 cups of white flour is needed when the recipe uses 60 cups of wheat flour.

Hope this helps! :)
