Answer:
C. 4 weeks
Explanation:
Trish and Aria are walking to raise money for the school library. Trish has walked 38 miles and walks 10 miles each week. Aria has walked 30 miles and walks 12 miles each week
After how many weeks will Trish and Aria have walked the same number of miles? A. 2 weeks B. 3 weeks C. 4 weeks D. 5 weeks
Trish = 38 + 10x
Aria = 30 + 12x
Where,
x = number of weeks
After how many weeks will Trish and Aria have walked the same number of miles?
Equate both equations
38 + 10x = 30 + 12x
38 - 30 = 12x - 10x
8 = 2x
x = 8/2
x = 4 weeks
