Answer 1

Five, Six, Seven, and eight

Answer 2

Answer:

5,6,7 or 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Jill ran total distance yesterday=x miles

Today she ran total distance=x+2 miles

We have to circle the number that could  represents the number of miles Jill ran yesterday

According to question

$x+2>6$

Subtract 2 on both sides then we get

$x+2-2>6-2$

$x>4$

It means Jill ran yesterday more than 4 miles.

Therefore, she ran 5,6,7 or 8 miles yesterday.

5,6,7 or 8
