The total is 219 miles.

He rides at 38 mph and walks at 4 mph for 8 hours. If he rides for h hours, he walks for 8-h hours.

Set them equal to each other:

219=38h+4(8-h)

Solve and you should get 5.5 hours on the bicycle and 2.5 hours walking.

Solve the equation 3/4x+3-2x = -1/4+1/2x+5

Hi there! The answer is x = -1

Let's solve this equation step by step!
$\frac{3}{4} x + 3 - 2x = - \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2} x + 5$

First collect terms.
$- 1 \frac{1}{4} x + 3 = \frac{1}{2} x + 4 \frac{3}{4}$

Subtract (1/2)x from both sides.
$- 1\frac{3}{4} x + 3 = 4 \frac{3}{4}$

Subtract 3 from both sides.
$- 1\frac{3}{4} x = 1 \frac{3}{4}$

And finally divide by -1 3/4
$x = \frac{7}{4} \div - \frac{7}{4} = \frac{7}{4} \times - \frac{4}{7} = - \frac{28}{28} = - 1$
