Question

1. During a walkathon, Team A walks a total of 6x + 11 miles. Team B walks a total of 2x - 7 miles. What is the difference in miles between the two teams? *

Answer 1

(-4x-18) miles

Explanation:

Distance walked by team A = (6x + 11) miles

Distance walked by team B = (2x - 7) miles

We need to find the difference in miles between the two teams.

Difference = team B - team A

= (2x - 7)-(6x + 11)

= 2x-6x-7-11

= (-4x-18) miles

So, the difference between the two teams is (-4x-18) miles.
