Guinea pig (p) = 4 years old
Giraffe (g) = 10 years old
Tiger (t) = 16 years old

P = g-6
T = 4p

30 = g+g-6+(4(g-6))
30 = 2g-6+4g-24
30 = 6g-30
+30 +30
60 = 6g
6 6
10 = g

P = 10-6
P = 4

T = 4(4)
T = 16

Sean is driving to visit his friend in another state.In the first hour he travels 1/5 of the total distance. In the second hour
lozanna [386]

Answer:

They live 285 miles apart

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total distance be x miles

Sean is driving to visit his friend in another state. In the first hour he travels 1/5 of the total distance. This means that he drove x/5 in the first hour. In the second hour he travels 34 miles. That means

Total distance driven in the first and second hour is

(x/5 + 34)miles

He still has 194 miles more to go.

Therefore,

The total distance is the sum of the distance travelled in the first and second hour + the remaining distance.

x = x/5 + 34 + 194

x = x/5 + 228

Cross multiplying

5x = x + 1140

4x = 1140

x = 1140/4 = 285 miles
