hours?
Answer:
If you were asking how many miles in total: 290 miles.
If you were asking how many miles in the 2 hours: 122 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
In the first 168 miles,
a#b=2a-b
1=2a-b
1=(2×3)-b
1=6-b
collect like terms
1-6=-b
-5=-b
divide both sides by1
5=b
:.b=5
Answer: x = 10
Step-by-step explanation: First, you combine like terms. Your equation is now 5x-2 = 48. Then, you isolate the variable by moving the -2 onto the other side. Now your equation is 5x = 50. Then you divide 5x by 5 to isolate x and divide 50 by 5 and get 10, so x = 10.
