George and carmen went on a bicycle trip. they took a bus to their starting piont, and then biked the rest. they traveled 275 ki
lometers in totals, and they biked 55 kilometers more than they were bussed. x=kilometers travel by bike and y= kilometers
find how many kilometers they traveled by bike
x + y = 275 (if you travel <em>x</em> km by bike and <em>y </em>km by bus, then you travel 275 km as given in the problem) y = x + 55 (the problem stated that they were bussed (y) the amount they biked plus 55 more km (x + 55))
The second equation is already solved for y. So, we can plug it in to the first equation.
x + (x + 55) = 275 2x + 55 = 275 [combine x terms] 2x = 220 [subtract 55 from both sides] x = 110 [divide by 2 to isolate x and solve for it]
Now we know that x is 110, the distance they traveled by bike. And that's what we needed to answer the problem!
Probability is the branch of mathematics that is concerned with the numerical descriptions of how likely an event will occur or how likely a proposition is true
The probability that the six-sided die is three or Abdul rolls doubles is 7/24. The calculation is attached.
A linear pair consists of two opposite angles whose non-common sides create a straight line. If a linear pair consists of two angles, then they are supplementary
