Answer: 0.22
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/5 can be written as 6/5
7 1/2 can be written as 15/2
Let X be the number of laps Kellyn wants to jog to meet her 7 1/2 mile goal:
6/5x = 15/2 Multiply both sides by (5/6), the inverse of 6/5
x = 15(5) / 2 ( 6)
x = 75 / 12
X = 25 / 4, or 6 and 1/4 laps
X = 3
2(4x - 3) - 8 = 4 + 2x
1. Distribute
8x - 6 - 8 = 4 + 2x
2. Collect like terms
8x - 14 = 4 + 2x
3. Collect like terms again (add 14 and subtract 2x)
6x = 18
4. Divide by 6
x = 3
