Answer:

For Lauren - d = 18t

For Minki - d = 6 + 12t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given The speed of Lauren  is 18 miles per hour and the speed of Minki is 12 miles per hour

Also Given that Minki got a head start of 6 miles

For Lauren

Speed=\frac{distance}{time}

18=\frac{d}{t}

d = 18t

For Minki

Speed=\frac{distance}{time}

12=\frac{d}{t}

d = 12t

Also given that he had a 6 miles headstart

Therefore the equation becomes

d = 6 + 12t

Zolol [24]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

2(x + 5) = 26

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Distribute 2:</u> 2x + 10 = 26

<u>Subtract 10 on both sides:</u> 2x = 16

<u>Divide both sides by 2:</u> x = 8
