To solve for f, you need to isolate/get the variable by itself in the equation:
4(0.5f - 0.25) = 6 + f Distribute 4 into (0.5f - 0.25)
(4)0.5f + (4)(-0.25) = 6 + f
2f - 1 = 6 + f Subtract f on both sides to get "f" on one side of the equation
2f - f - 1 = 6 + f - f
f - 1 = 6 Add 1 on both sides to get "f" by itself
f - 1 + 1 = 6 + 1
f = 7
PROOF
4(0.5f - 0.25) = 6 + f Substitute/plug in 7 into "f" since f = 7
4(0.5(7) - 0.25) = 6 + 7
4(3.5 - 0.25) = 13
4(3.25) = 13
13 = 13
Entire distance = 1,320
Entire time = 5 hours
bus avg = 40 km/h
plane avg = 600 km/h
Working this by trial and error
1 hour bus 4 hour plane = 40 + 2,400 = 2,800 distance (too high)
2 hour bus 3 hour plane = 80 + 1,800 = 1,880 distance (too high)
3 hour bus 2 hour plane = 120 + 1,200 = 1,320 distance (Correct!!)
So, they traveled 3 hours by bus and 2 hours by plane
(yes, you had the right answer).
The final awser is x-16
hope this is what u needed
Well, 5384 is 5000 bigger than 384. So you would add 20000 (4*5000) to the answer of 4*384, which is 1536.
So 1536+20000=21536
The answer should be b
The other one should be 8
