Step 1 is the correct answer because to begin solving you must add 1 to both sides of the equation
Answer:
4 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the time to returned back biking in hours
d ---> the distance in miles
s ---> speed in miles per hour
Remember that
The speed or rate is equal to divide the distance by the time

The distance is equal to multiply the speed by the time

we know that

The distance to his friend's house and the distance of return is the same
so

solve for x

subtract 4x both sides



The total distance of the round trip is

substitute the value of x


Answer:
(in attachment)
Step-by-step explanation:
you can find the points by inputting the x-values into the equation to solve for the y-values, then connecting the plotted points to create the line.
When x=-4
y=1/2(-4)
y=-2
(-4,-2)
Repeat for all values.
Answer: 2 buses and 4 vans would be needed
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of buses that would be needed.
Let y represent the number of vans that would be needed.
There will be six drivers, and two different types of vehicles. This means that
x + y = 6
142 students are going on a field trip. A bus can hold 51 people while a van can hold 10. This means that
51x + 10y = 142 - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 6 - y into equation 1, it becomes
51(6 - y) + 10y = 142
306 - 51y + 10y = 142
- 51y + 10y = 142 - 306
- 41y = - 164
y = - 164/ - 41
y = 4
x = 6 - y = 6 - 4
x = 2
