Answer:
D <u><em>Because if you substitute 4 into the equation for x and cross multiply, you get 224 = 224.</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
When you cross multiply, you get 14×16=224, and 224÷4=56.
5000 pounds is equal to 2.5 tons because 1 ton is equal to 2000 pounds
<span>Uphill distance = 1 4/5 = 9/5 = 18/10 km
Downhill Distance = 2 7/10 = 27/10 km
Total Uphill and Downhill = 18/10 + 27/10 = 45/10 = 4.5 km
Hence total level ground = Total race km - (Uphill + Downhill)
=10 - 4.5 = 5.5 km
Hence the answer is 5.5 km.</span>
I think that the answer would be 2 if I am right
