Answer:
1.75 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to calculate how far the hike is going up the trail. They first hike 2 miles and then another 1.75 miles after resting so...
2 + 1.75 = 3.75 miles
The trail is 3.75 miles long, the question states that the return path is 0.5 miles shorter, therefore...
3.75 - 0.5 = 3.25 miles
Leaving us with a total hiking distance of
3.75 + 3.25 = 7 miles.
Since each hiker will carry 0.25 gallons for each mile we simply need to multiply this amount by the total number of miles in the hike.
7 * 0.25 = 1.75 gallons
Finally, we can see that each hiker will carry a total of 1.75 gallons of water for the entire hike.
Subtract 70 from 16, and you get 54.

Answer:
2 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello there! How are you today?
4x + 5 -2 = 3x + 7x - 15
First, we need to get the variable (x) on one side. To do that, we must simplify the right side of the equation, and then decide what to do from there, so let's proceed to do so.
3x + 7x = 10x
4x + 5 - 2= 10x - 15
Now we have x simplified on both sides of the equation. However, we need x to be on one side of the equation in order to solve for it.
Subtract 4x from both sides.
4x - 4x = 0
10x - 4x = 6x
We are now left with:
6x - 15 = 5 - 2
Simplify the right side of the equation.
5 - 2 = 3
6x - 15 = 3
Now we need to isolate x. To isolate x, we need to add 15 to both sides, as x is being subtracted by 15, and adding 15 will cancel it out.
-15 + 15 = 0
3 + 15 = 18
We now are left with:
6x = 18
Now we only have one step left, and that is to solve for x. Since x is being multiplied by 6, we need to perform the opposite order of operations to cancel it out. To do that, we must divide both sides by 6 to solve for x.
6x = 18
Divide both sides by 6.
6x / 6 = x
18 / 6 = 3
We are now left with the solution:
x = 3
I hope this helps!
