You can rewrite this equation as "f - g - 1". That's all that I see that you can do with this.
Answer:
16 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens:
4 hours total time
48 miles total distance
So our equation should look like this.
48 = 2x(2) + x(2)
Where x = speed second half of trip.
x = 8
x*2 = 16 mph
The solution of this equation is -7.
3x - 7 = 4x
3x - 7 - 4x = 0
3x - 4x - 7 = 0
-x - 7 = 0
-x = 7
x = -7
X=-4-y there you go enjoy
