To find the equation take the slope 2/3 y-y(1)=m(x-x(1) y-4=2/3(x-8) = 2/3x-16/3 Next solve for y y=2/3x-16/3 +4(turn 4 into a fraction with a common denominator) y=2/3x-16/3 + 12/3 y=2/3x-4/3

Claire traveled 701 miles. She drove 80 miles every day. On the last day of her trip she only drove 61 miles. Write and solve an

mina [271]

Answer:

Claire traveled for 9 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Distance traveled = 701 miles

Distance traveled each day = 80 miles

Distance traveled on last day = 61 miles

We need to find the number of days Claire traveled.

Solution:

Let the number of days Claire traveled be denoted by 'd'.

Now we can say that;

Total Distance traveled is equal to sum of Distance traveled each day multiplied by number of days and Distance traveled on last day.

framing in equation form we get;

$80d+61=701$

Now Subtracting both side by 61 using Subtraction Property of Equality we get;

$80d+61-61=701-61\\\\80d = 640$

Now Dividing both side by 80 we get;

$\frac{80d}{80}=\frac{640}{80}\\\\d=8$

Hence Claire traveled 80 miles in 8 days and 61 miles on last day making of total <u>9 days</u> of travel.
