Given :
Emilie rides her bike x miles before she gets a flat tire.
She walks 1/3 mile to a bus stop and then takes a bus for 2 1/2 miles.
To Find :
Which expression shows how many miles Emilie travels in all.
Solution :
We know, total distance covered is given by sum of all the distance she travelled.
Distance covered, D = x + 1/3 + 2 1/2
D = x + 1/3 + 5/2
D = (6x + 2 + 15)/6
D = (6x + 17)/6
Therefore, total distance travelled by Emilie is (6x + 17)/6 .
Answer:
-4 +4 =0
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of a number and its' additive inverse is 0
The additive inverse of -4 is 4
-4 +4 =0
Answer:
One avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a system of equations where t is the number of tomatoes and a is the number of avocados:
4t + 8a = 10
6t + 14a = 17
Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by -2:
12t + 24a = 30
-12t - 28a = -34
Add them together and solve for a:
-4a = -4
a = 1
Plug in 1 as a into one of the equations and solve for t:
4t + 8a = 10
4t + 8(1) = 10
4t + 8 = 10
4t = 2
t = 0.5
So, one avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50
