If we set the unknown distance (in miles) as x, then we set up an equation according to the data, we can solve for x.

Time taken to go to resort : x/48
Time taken to return : x/40
Total time = x/48+x/40 = 11
Solve for x
common multiple between 48 and 40 = 240
so 
5x/240 + 6x/240 = 11
(5x+6x)/240 = 11
11x  = 11*240, => x=240
Distance from home to resort is 240 miles

-3(4r-8)=-36. <br> HELP!!! Don’t know the answer. Btw, 8th grade homework!! ;)

*Sorry I messed up my math please read the new answer.
Use distrubitive property to get rid of parentheses. Multiply -3 by 4r and -8 to get -12r+24=36. Then zero out 24 by subtarcting 24 from both sides. You. should then have -12r=12. Divide by -12 on both sides to get r by itself. Your answer should be r=1*. Hope this helps :)
