Answer:
562 = 85x +52
x is the number of days
Veronica traveled for 7 days
Step-by-step explanation:
562 = 85x + 52
510 = 85x Subtract 52 on both sides
6 = x Divide by 85 to isolate x
Even though Veronica only had to drive 52 miles on the last day of her trip, it still counts as a day of driving. Hence, she traveled 7 days in total.
The only way to make a decimal out of either of those numbers is to write a decimal point with some zeros after it.
500,000 = 500,000.000
60,000,000 = 60,000,000.00000
etc.
