1/6y - 4 = -7
1/6y = -7 + 4
1/6y = -3
1 = -18y
-18y = 1
answer
y = -1/18
The problem consists in finding the new length of a running trail knowing the original length and the extension required. So the new length will be equal to original length + extension. New length = 2.826 miles + 1.46 miles = 2.826 miles + 1. 460 miles (I added a 0 in the place of the thousandths for the second summand to make clear the sumation) = 4.286 miles. Then<span> the answer is 4.286 miles.</span>

2:3:1....added = 6
2/6(72) = 144/6 = 24
3/6(72) = 216/6 = 36
1/6(72) = 72/6 = 12
ratio is now 24:36:12
