Question

Madison wants to ride her bicycle 27 miles this week. She has already rídden 7 miles.

If she rides for 4 more days, write and solve an equation which can be used to
determine m, the average number of miles she would have to ride each day to meet
her goal

Answer 1

x=5

Explanation:

Formulate and substitute:d=4v

Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation: 4x=27-7

Calculate the sum or difference: 4x=20

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable: x=20÷4

Calculate the product or quotient: x=5

So the Answer is: x=5
