Part B
How many total miles would Ted jog if he continued to jog the same number of miles each day for 6 days? Enter your answer in the box

Part A: 2.8 miles

Part B: 16.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for how many miles Ted jogged in 1 day:

Variable x = number of miles

11.2/4 = x/1

Cross multiply

11.2 × 1 = 4 × x

11.2 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4

2.8 = x

He jogged 2.8 miles every day.

To find how many miles Ted would jog in 6 days, simply multiply his miles per day by the number of days he will jog:

2.8 miles × 6 days = 16.8 miles in 6 days

x is greater than 5

step-by-step explanation:

2x+7 is greater than 17

    -7                           -7

2x is greater than 10

divide by 2 each side

x is greater than 5
