In the question it is given that the length of the blue lake trail is 11 3/8 miles. In the question it is also given that Gemma has hiked for a total time of 3 hours and each hour she has hiked 2 1/2 miles.
Now coming to solving the problem we get:
Total length of blue lake trail = 11 3/8 miles
= 91/8 miles
Distance hiked by Gemma in 1 hour = 2 1/2 miles
= 5/2 miles
Then the total distance hiked by Gemma in 3 hours = (5/2) * 3
= 15/2 miles
The distance left to cover the full trail = (91/8) - (15/2) miles
= (91 - 60)/8 miles
= 31/8 miles
= 3 7/8 miles.
So Gemma is 31/8 miles or 3 7/8 miles from the end of the trail.
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 12 when x = - 2, then
k = 
= 
= - 6, thus
y = - 6x ← equation of variation
When y = - 6, then
- 6 = - 6x ( divide both sides by - 6 )
x = 1
