1. 2(4) - 4y = 20
8 -4y = 20
8-8 -4y = 20 - 8
-4/-4y = 12/-4
y = -3
Answer:
160 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this, we need to realize that the mile is being divided into 33 equal parts. Therefore our operation should look like this:
5,280 (the number of feet in 1 mile) / 33
5,280/33=160
The posts are 160 feet apart from each other.
HTH :)
The answer would be 144 :)
