Answer:
2/2
Step-by-step explanation:
I think so, because 14/2 = 7 and 18/2 = 9
Total distance covered by <span>George and Carmen
</span>x + y = 350
And they biked 80 kilometers more than they bussed
<span>80 + y = x </span>
Putting the value of x=80 + y in <span>x + y = 350:
</span>We get:
<span>80 + y + y = 350 </span>
<span>2y = 270 </span>
<span>y = 135 km</span>
<span>Substituting y = 135 in x + y = 350 </span>
<span>x + 135 = 350</span>
<span>x = 215 km </span>
Thus George and Carmen biked for 215 km and bussed for 135 km.
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify both sides of the equation.
Subtract 15 from both sides.
Divide both sides by -2.
x = 11
