Juan's time = x
Yumi's time = x + 2
Yumi's distance = 3 miles
Juan's distance = 2 miles
Rate = distance/time
Juan's rate = 2/x
Yumi's rate = 3/(x + 2)
The rates are equal so:
2/x = 3/(x + 2)
2x + 4 = 3x
x = 4 hours
Yumi's time = 4 + 2 = 6 hours
The answer is D.

Tell whether the given number is a solution of each question. ( Must show work for credit)

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. $9 = 2a + 3$ ; 3

Let's solve for a.

$9 - 3 = 2a$ (subtraction property of equality)

$6 = 2a$

$\frac{6}{2} = a$ (division property of equality)

$3 = a$

$a = 3$

Therefore, 3 is a solution to 9 = 2a + 3

2. $5n - (-30) = 5$ ; 7

$5n + 30 = 5$ (- × - = +)

$5n = 5 - 30$ (Subtraction property of equality)

$5n = -25$

$\frac{5n}{5} = \frac{-25}{5}$ (division property of equality)

$n = -5$

Therefore, 7 is not a solution of $5n - (-30) = 5$

3. $4.4r - 2.8 = 1.6$ ; 1

$4.4r = 1.6 + 2.8$

$4.4r = 4.4$

$\frac{4.4r}{4.4} = \frac{4.4}{4.4}$

$r = 1$

Therefore, 1 is a solution of $4.4r - 2.8 = 1.6$ .

Alecsey [184]

$Solution,6b+7-2b=1+5b\quad :\quad b=6$

$Steps:$

$6b+7-2b=1+5b$

$\mathrm{Group\:like\:terms}, 6b-2b+7=1+5b$

$\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:6b-2b=4b, 4b+7=1+5b$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}7\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}, 4b+7-7=1+5b-7$

$\mathrm{Simplify}, 4b=5b-6$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}5b\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}, 4b-5b=5b-6-5b$

$\mathrm{Simplify}, -b=-6$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-1, \frac{-b}{-1}=\frac{-6}{-1}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}, b=6$

$\mathrm{The\:Correct\:Answer\:is\:b=6}$

$\mathrm{Hope\:This\:Helps!!!}$
