His distance from one end is ' D ', and his distance from the other end is ' 2D '.

The distance from one end to the other end is (D + 2D) = 3D .

3D = 1,049 miles

Divide each side by 3 :

D = 1,049 / 3 = 349 and 2/3 miles .

The question doesn't tell which end he started from, and where he's headed,
so I guess you have to know that this is the Iditerod race, it STARTS in Anchorage,
and it ENDS in Nome. 

He is ' 2D ' from Anchorage, so he has completed [ 2 x (349 and 2/3 miles) ] =
699 and 1/3 miles.

Rounded to the nearest mile, that's 699 miles.

Maru [420]

Answer:

<u>0.125 miles per gallon.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

After 200 gallons used the freight train has traveled 25 miles. This means that we need to divide both sides by 200 to get a singular gallon's worth of miles traveled. 200/200 is 1, and 25/200 is 0.125.

---------------------

<u><em>IF</em></u> it were how many gallons per mile, you would divide both answers by 25 resulting in <u>8 gallons per mile.</u>

If f(x)=| x-2 |, then find f(-3)
GenaCL600 [577]

The value of f(-3) is 5.

In order to find this answer, we are going to input -3 in for x (this is what the notation f(-3) means).

f(x)=| x-2 |

f(-3)=| -3 -2 |

f(-3)=| -5 |

Now we have to take the absolute value.

f(-3) = 5

lidiya [134]
