1) Use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses.
.. 3(6x) -3(5) -7(3x) -7(10) = 0
.. 18x -15 -21x -70 = 0 . . . . . . finish multiplying terms
.. -3x -85 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect like terms
.. -85 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .add 3x
.. -85/3 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 3
.. -28 1/3 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . write as mixed number
2) 5 -(6 +9x) = 9 -(4x -1)
.. 5 -6 -9x = 9 -4x +1 . . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property
.. -1 -9x = 10 -4x . . . . . . . . . collect like terms
.. -1 = 10 +5x . . . . . . . . . . . . add 9x
.. -11 = 5x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 10
.. -11/5 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
.. -2 1/5 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . write as mixed number

Answer:
0.311 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert 16 seconds to hours :
16 /60×60
= 16÷3600
= .004444hrs
Distance = Speed × time
= 70 × 0.00444444
= 0.311 miles
