So j completed 6/7 of a lap
gabe has completed 2/9 lap
so
1 j lap=7 mins s o
7j
j=num of laps
1 g lap=9 mins so
9g
g=num of laps
then 6+j
and g+2

so
when will the times be equal
7j+6=9g+2
subtract 2 from both sides
7j+4=9g
divide both sides by 9
7/9j+4/9=g
so to get a whole number of laps, we must subsitute a number when it is multiplied by 7 then add 4, we get a multiplue of 9
so if j=2
7/9(2)+4/9=g=14/9+4/9=g=18/9=g=2
so josh and gabe must run 2 lap each because
6+(2 times 7)=2+(9 times 2)
6+14=2+18
20=20
true so

the answer is 2 laps

Enter as a integer or decimal
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4(x + 6) - 2x = 12 ← distribute and simplify left side

4x + 24 - 2x = 12

2x + 24 = 12 ( subtract 24 from both sides )

2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 6
