Answer: 7 laps
Step-by-step explanation:
The athlete planned to run 3 miles
1 lap = 3/7 miles
x laps = 3 miles
by proportion :
x × 3/7miles = 3 miles
x = 3 ÷ 3/7
x = 3 x 7/3
x = 7
Therefore: the athlete will run 7 laps
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 3 = 4x,
x + 3 = 0,
x = -3
Answer:
Justin travels 211.83 miles on 8.2 gallons of gas.
Step-by-step explanation:
77.5 miles / 3.1 gallons = x miles / 8.2 gallons
Solve for x... multiply by 8.2 gallons on both sides (that cancels it on the right) side of the equation.
8.2 gallons *77.5 miles / 3.1 gallons = x
635.5/ 3.1 = x
211.83 miles = x
the square root is 30.0333148
