Let distance of Sarah from school = x
Distance of sam from school = 3.5x or 13.3
=> 3.5x = 13.3
X = 13.3/ 3.5
X = 3.8
The answer is x=3. Work shown in the photo above!
Answer:
The correct answer is 3x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
It gives you the expression for JM and LM, and it asks for JL. Therefore, if you take away LM from JM, you are left with JL. You must subtract 2x-6 from 5x-8.
∴5x-8-(2x-6)
Do not forget to distribute the negative since you are subtracting, so instead of subtracting 6 from 8, you will be adding 6 to 8 because two negatives make a positive.
