Answer:

  21 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the distances is the same, so we have ...

  5x +4 = 15x -30

  34 = 10x

  3.4 = x

Then the distances are ...

  5(3.4) +4 = 21 . . . . miles

Bert and Ernie each live 21 miles from Big Bird's nest.

Fill the value of the expression 24 3/5 +4 ×(8 1/5-2)
Julli [10]
First off, we'll convert the mixed fractions to "improper",

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{24\frac{3}{5}}\implies \cfrac{24\cdot 5+3}{5}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{123}{5}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{mixed}{8\frac{1}{5}}\implies \cfrac{8\cdot 5+1}{5}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{41}{5}}

\bf 24\frac{3}{5}\times \left( 8\frac{1}{5}-2 \right)\implies \cfrac{123}{5}\left( \cfrac{41}{5}-2 \right)\impliedby \mathbb{PEMDAS}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{123}{5}\left( \cfrac{41-10}{5} \right)\implies \cfrac{123}{5}\left( \cfrac{31}{5} \right)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{123\cdot 31}{5\cdot 5}\implies \cfrac{3813}{25}\implies 152\frac{13}{25}
