<h3>Answer: 104 miles</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

  • x = number of miles Amy drove
  • 2x = number of miles Jessica drove, since she drove twice the distance as Amy did

Combine the two expressions: x+2x = 3x

The two girls traveled a total distance of 312 miles, so 3x = 312

Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x. You should get x = 104

Amy drove 104 miles and Jessica drove 2*104 = 208 miles

Check:

Amy + Jessica = 104 + 208 = 312

The answer is confirmed.

Answer:

Amy drove 104 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'a' = miles Amy drove

let '2a' = miles Jessica drove

a + 2a = 312

3a = 312

a = 312/3

a = 104

2a = 208

Check:  104+208 should equal 312 and it does

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

  • (x, y) → (4x, 4y)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Dilation is applied by the rule:</u>

  • (x, y) → (kx, ky), where k is the scale factor

<u>We have</u>

  • (x, y) = (-2, 3) and (kx, ky) = (-8, 12)

<u>Substitute and solve for k</u>

  • -8 = -2k and 12 = 3k  ⇒ k = 4

<u>So the rule is</u>

  • (x, y) → (4x, 4y)

if she earns 410 tutoring...
410 = 210 + 20(h - 7)
410 = 210 + 20h - 140
410 = 20h + 70
