Answer: Well you’re solving for “x,” so you’ll need to isolate this variable. This means we need to “get rid of” the fraction 2/3 that is attached to it. The faction is attached by the operation multiplication, so to remove it we must divide it on both sides. And division with fractions requires the reciprocal. (Try watching an explanation if you’re confused on why division requires reciprocals).

10; your car travels for 10 hours.
Assoli18 [71]

The algebraic expression that represents the total distance traveled by the car is 10s

<h3>How to determine the algebraic expression?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Speed = s miles per hour
  • Time = 10 hours

The distance is calculated using:

Distance = Speed * Time

So, we have:

Distance = s* 10

Evaluate

Distance = 10s

Hence, the algebraic expression that represents the total distance traveled by the car is 10s

anastassius [24]

Answer:

so first, 0 can't be divisible

but whatever,

0 + 0=0
