So,
We'll just use A to represent both Jan and Mya's miles, since they ran the same number.
We have the equations:
1. Jan (J) = Mya (M)
2. Sara (S) = M - 8
3. 2A + S = 64
J = M
S = M - 8
We'll just use A to represent both J and M.
S = M - 8
We'll use Elimination by Substitution.
2A + A - 8 = 64
Collect Like Terms
3A - 8 = 64
Add 8 to both sides
3A = 72
Divide both sides by 3
A = 24
Since
A = J
and
A = M
and
J = M
then
J = 24
M = 24
Substitute
S = 24 - 8
S = 16
Check
24 + 24 + 16 = 64
64 = 64 This checks.
So,
J = 24
M = 24
S = 16
Answer:
4.9 hours = 4 hours 54 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
speed = distance/time
time * speed = distance
time = distance/speed
time = (284 miles)/(58 mph) = 4.9 hours
4.9 hours - 4 hours = 0.9 hours
0.9 hours * (60 minutes)/(1 hour) = 54 minutes
4.9 hours = 4 hours 54 minutes
Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
19 < x < 25
x had to be higher than 19 but lower than 25
18 cant be the answer because it is less than 19
27 cant be the answer because it is higher than 25
that leaves 20, which is the right answer
19 < 20 < 25
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:19 and 31
