Each morning Rin rides 1.5 miles to school and then rides home in the afternoon. Later in the evening, she rides to the park and back home. Over the 5 school days, she rides a total of 25 miles. Which equation can be used to find the distance she rides each evening? 1.5 + x = 25
1.5 + 1.5 + x = 25
5 (1.5 + x) = 25
5 (1.5 + 1.5 + x) = 25

Last equation given in the list of possible answers:

5 ( 1.5 + 1.5 + x ) = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to include in the total addition of miles ridden during the week:

a) 1.5 miles to the school

b) 1.5 miles from school back home

c) x miles for the evening ride

so for the miles ridden per day we have: "1.5 +1.5 + x"

Now, since per week she does 5 days like this, then we need to multiply the expression above by 5 in order to total the number of miles she rides weekly (25 miles)

5 ( 1.5 + 1.5 + x ) = 25

And we can use this equation to find the amount "x" that Rin rides in the evening.

answer: first option i.e. 'a' is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

number of minutes to wrap a small gift box = 4 minutes

we need to find the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes

since there is a direct variation, as the number of minutes will increase with   number of gifts to be wrapped.

so, let the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes be x.

so, it becomes,

hence, first option 'a'   is correct.
