To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You have that Jim drove the car 2,718.3 miles for a total mileage of 87,416.
2. Then, to calculate the mileage before last month, you only need to substract the total mileage given in the exercise above and the mileage drove last month, as following:
Therefore, the answer is: 84,697.7 miles.
Please comment on this answer and give me a full question and I will be just fine answering it for you.
Answer: the equations are
k = d + 33
k - 2 = 4(d-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Kevin be represented by k
Let the present age of Daniel be represented by d
Kevin is 33 years older than Daniel. This means that the expression for their current age is
k = d + 33
Two years ago, Kevin was 4 times as old as Daniel. This means that 2 will be subtracted from their present ages to depict two years ago. Therefore, Two years ago for Daniel will be d-2
Two years ago for Kevin will be k - 2
Remember that Kevin was 4 times as old as Daniel two years ago, it becomes
k - 2 = 4(d-2)
