Answer:
Equations:
<u>Mia: 10 + 10x = y</u>
<u>Julie: 100 - 5x = y</u>
Solved: <u>(6, 70)</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Mia: 10 + 10x = y
She already has 10 (<u>10</u>) and gains 10 (<u>+10</u>) per day (<u>x</u>). Total is y gained.
Julie: 100 - 5x = y
She already has 100 (<u>100</u>) and loses 5 (<u>-5</u>) per day (<u>x</u>). Total is y gained.
Then I simply solve
10 + 10x = y
100 - 5x = y
Resulting in (6, 70)
In the question it is given that the length of the blue lake trail is 11 3/8 miles. In the question it is also given that Gemma has hiked for a total time of 3 hours and each hour she has hiked 2 1/2 miles.
Now coming to solving the problem we get:
Total length of blue lake trail = 11 3/8 miles
= 91/8 miles
Distance hiked by Gemma in 1 hour = 2 1/2 miles
= 5/2 miles
Then the total distance hiked by Gemma in 3 hours = (5/2) * 3
= 15/2 miles
The distance left to cover the full trail = (91/8) - (15/2) miles
= (91 - 60)/8 miles
= 31/8 miles
= 3 7/8 miles.
So Gemma is 31/8 miles or 3 7/8 miles from the end of the trail.
Answer: 3 Sets of the 4 post cards and 3 of the single post cart sets.
Step-by-step explanation:
