20x+3
This shouldddd be the answer sorry if I’m wrong, but if you group all the x variables together they add up to twenty, then you just add “+3” being that it has no x and therefore must be put in some form of separate group!
Answer:
Courtney's walking speed = 3.33mph
Brandi's walking speed = 4.33 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Courtney's walking speed
then
(x + 1) = Brandi's walking speed
:
Time = Distance/speed
Brandi walks 6.5 mi time = Courtney walks 5 mi time
6.5/x + 1 = 5/x
Cross multiply
6.5x= 5(x+1)
6.5x= 5x + 5
6.5x - 5x = 5
1.5x = 5
x = 5/1.5
x = 3.33 mph is Courtney's walking speed
Note that:
(x + 1) = Brandi's walking speed
3.33mph + 1 = 4.33mph
Therefore,
Courtney's walking speed = 3.33mph
Brandi's walking speed = 4.33 mph
0.7 as a fraction would be 7/10
