We first need to find the distance.
The information about Mike will provide the distance we need to answer the question about Pedro.
We will use D = rt
Mike:
(6.5)((17/5) = D
22.1 miles = D
Pedro:
D = rt
22.1 = (19/5)t
We need to find t.
22.1 ÷ 3.8 = t
5.8157894737 = t
We now round off as instructed.
5.82 = t
It took Pedro 5.82 hours to reach the lake.

=

Cross multiply..
1x = 12.8
Divide 1 from both sides

=

x = 12.8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let's check our answer now..

=

Cross multiply
12.8 = 12.8
Your answer is 12.8 :)
Answer:
x=1.88
Step-by-step explanation:
The fact that you must remember is that these points lie on a plane that have a a distance that is ALWAYS an absolute value. If point A lies on -6 you can have two points that are of a distance 20 points in either direction. If moving the left, point B can have a value of -26 and moving to the right, point B will have a value of 14. Hope this is clear!
Good luck!
Let numbers be x and y
ATQ
Adding both



Now putting value in eq(2)
