A construction crew is lengthening a road. The road started with a length of 56 miles, and the crew is adding

3 miles to the road each day.
Let L represent the total length of the road (in miles), and let D represent the number of days the crew has
worked. Write an equation relating L to D. Then use this equation to find the total length of the road after
the crew has worked 36 days.

Using A linear equation, It ia found that:

• The equation is: L = 56 + 3d

Where D is representing the number of day crew has worked and L presenting the total length of the road. So let's solve this.

Step by step Explanation:

= L = 56 + 3d

= L = 56 + 3(36)

= L = 54 + 108

= L = 162
