Hey there! :)
Since 2 4/5 is greater than 1/4, the answer is negative.
You can just subtract 2 4/5 and 1/4 and add the (-) sign
2 4/5 - 1/4
Change the fractions so they can have a common denominator: 20
2 4/5 = 2 16/20
1/4 = 5/20
2 16/20 - 5/20 = 2 11/20
Add the (-) sign → -2 11/20
Answer ⇒ -2 11/20

According to the question,
Let,
"n" represent the number of miles semir walked.
"y" represent the number of miles sarah walked.
Now, according to the question,
y = 2n - 5 ........................this is your equation
Also,
the question states, each of them collect $18 in pledges for every miles walked.
Given,
Sarah collected $450
Now,
Using unitary method,
Sarah collects $18 for 1 mile
Sarah collects $1 for (1 / $18) mile
Sarah collects $450 for (1 / 18) * 450 mile
= 25 miles
So, Sarah walks 25 miles.
Now,
Taking equation,
y = 2n - 5
Since, y is the no. of miles sarah walked, we can write 25 in place of "y" So,
(25) = 2n - 5
25 + 5 = 2n
30 = 2n
30 / 2 = n
15 = n
Since, "n" is the no. of miles that semir walked, Semir walked 15 miles.

Answer:
Number of trucks = 24
Number of SUVs = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
A)
The ratio of cars to trucks is 9:4
The total ratio of cars to trucks is
9+4 = 13
Let x = sum of cars and trucks.
There are 54 cars. Therefore,
x = 54 + t trucks
Number of cars = ratio of cars/ total ratio × sum of cars and trucks. This means,
54 = 9/13 × x
9x / 13 = 54
9x = 13 × 54
9x = 702
x = 702 / 9 = 78
x = 54 + t trucks = number of trucks = 78 = 54 + t trucks
t trucks = 78 - 54 = 24
Number of trucks = 24
B)
The ratio of trucks to SUVs is 12:21
The total ratio of cars to trucks is
12 + 21 = 33
Let y = sum of trucks and SUVs
There are 24 trucks. Therefore,
x = 24 + s SUVs
Number of trucks = ratio of trucks / total ratio × sum of trucks and SUVs. This means,
24 = 12 / 33 × y
12y / 33 = 24
12y = 24 × 33
12y = 792
y = 792 / 12 = 66
y = 24 + s SUVs
66 = 24 + s SUVs
s SUVs = 66 - 24 = 42
Number of SUVs = 24
