<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

That'd be 18 over 80.  The relative frequency of "spinning a 3" is 18/80 = 0.225.  That's equivalent to 22.5%.

Find a, d, e on a triangle.
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

A=20 degrees

D=70 degrees

E=110 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

A=20 because a right angle always = 90 so 90-70=20

D=70 because I believe that angles C and D make a right angle, and C = 20 degrees, so we now subtract. 90-20=70

E=110 because D and E = a straight line, which is 180, and sense D is 70 degrees, all we need to do is subtract. 180-70 is 110, so our answer is 110

Hoped this helped, and let me know if I messed up somewhere.
