Question

George and carmen went on a bicycle trip. They took a bus to their starting point, and then biked the rest. They traveled 350 miles in total, and they biked 80 kilometers more than they were bused.

Answer 1

Complete question − How many kilometres did they travel by bus and by bicycle.

Answer:George and carmen traveled by bus in 135km and by bikein 215km

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Miles traveled  =   350 miles  

Let Number of kilometres they traveled with bus  = x

and Let Number of kilometres they traveled with bike = x + 80

so that the total distance traveled with bus and bike be expressed as

x + x + 80 =   350 miles  

2x + 80 =   350 miles  

2x =   350 − 80

2x =270

x=135

George and Carmen traveled by bus in 135km  

and by bicycle=x + 80 = 135 km + 80 =215km
