Steve ran 11 miles

let the distance Steve ran be x

Then distance Kevin ran is x + 4 ( 4 miles more than Steve )

x + x + 4 = 26 ( the sum of their distance is 26 )

2x + 4 = 26 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 11

Steve ran 11 mies and Kevin ran 11 + 4 = 15 miles

check 11 + 15 = 26

×-2+2×+4+2×-2=180 what does x equal in this equation.

Answer:

x = 36

Here's how I got that:

- Group like terms -

x - 2 + 2x + 4 + 2x - 2 = 180

↓

5x - 2 + 4 - 2 = 180

↓

5x = 180

- Divide both sides by 5 -

5x/5 = 180/5

↓

x = 36

arlik [135]

Answer:

$\boxed{\bold{\frac{x+5}{5x-3}}}$

Explanation:

[ Step One ] Factor $\bold{x^2+4x-5}$

$\bold{x\left(x-1\right)+5\left(x-1\right)}$

[ Step Two ] Rewrite Equation

$\bold{\frac{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+5\right)}{5x^2-8x+3}}$

[ Step Three ] Factor $\bold{5x^2-8x+3}$

$\bold{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+5\right)}$

[ Step Four ] Rewrite Equation

$\bold{\frac{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+5\right)}{\left(5x-3\right)\left(x-1\right)}}$

[ Step Five ] Cancel Out Common Factor $\bold{x-1}$

$\bold{\frac{x+5}{5x-3}}$

$\boxed{\bold{Mordancy}}$
