Let's call the number x. So four times the number minus five would look like
4x-5
Twice the number plus three would look like
2x+3
Now make the two equations equal
4x-5=2x+3
I'm going to subtract 2x from each side
2x-5=3
Now I'm going to add five to each side
2x=8
Now divide both sides by 2
x=4
To double check, just plug back into the original equations
4(4)-5=11
2(4)+3=11
They are equal, so the answer is x=4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x,

Then, according to the question,

4x-5=2x+3

(we need to find the value of x)

4x-2x=5+3

= 2x=8

= x=8/2

= x=4

The formula for the sum of the a finite geometric series is this:
Sn = a((1-r^n) / (1-r))

The given values are:
n = 30
a = 0.5 mi
r = 1.10 (10% more each day)

S30 = 0.5 ((1-1.10^30) / (1-1.10))
S30 = 82.25 mi

After 30 days, he will have traveled 82.25 miles.
