Answer:
They rode 14 miles before replacing each horse
Step-by-step explanation:
We will be working under the assumption that all three riders sat on one horse at a time and rode it while the other horses rested.
From the problem, we can understand that the horses were each ridden for the same distance. This means that to get the total distance a horse rode before it was changed, we can divide the total distance by the number of horses that were used for the journey.
Distance each horse rode = 182/ 13 = 14 miles.
Therefore, each horse was ridden for 14 miles before it was changed.
X=2.5 the triangles are 2x the scale of the other one so if you divide the numbers on the triangle by 2 then you will get the answer for x

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
120,000
Step-by-step explanation:
8 times 10 to the 4th power is 80,000 and 4 times 10 to the 4th power is 40,000 and 80,000 plus 40,000 is 120,000
Luckily for us, this problem solved the bulk of its own question!
Now, all we have to do is solve for "x", or the amount of fiction books and plug its value back into the original equation to find the value of "y", or the amount of nonfiction books.
2x = 38
x = 19
There are 19 fiction books.
x + y = 26
19 + y = 26
y = 7
There are 7 nonfiction books.
Hope this helps!
