Answer:

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question;

A kid traveled a distance of 9 km by bike, and then walked a distance of x km.

a.Find the total distance traveled in terms of x

b. If the total distance was less than 30 km, form an inequality in x, and

then solve it!

a) Total distance = distance travelled by bike + distance walked

Total distance = 9km + xkm

Total distance = (9+x)km

b) If the total distance was less than 30 km, the inequality representing this is;

9+x < 30

Subtract 9 from both sides;

9+x-9 < 30-9

x < 21

hence the solution to the inequality is x< 21
