Question

Trina is on 120 mile four day bike ride on the first day. She travels 24 miles. She would like to travel equal announce over the remaining three days. How far will she travel on each of those three days right and solve an equation of the farm PX plus Q equals R then write a sentence to explain your answer.

Answer 1

To find out how far Trina will travel on each of the remaining three days, we need to divide the distance she has left after the first day by three.

Distance left after the first day = Total distance - Distance traveled on the first day
= 120 miles - 24 miles
= 96 miles

Let's call the distance Trina will travel on each of the remaining three days as x.
So, the equation representing this situation is:
3x = 96

To solve this equation, we need to isolate x. Dividing both sides of the equation by 3:
x = 96 / 3
x = 32

Therefore, Trina will travel 32 miles on each of the remaining three days.

In the equation Px + Q = R, we can let x represent the distance Trina will travel on each of the remaining three days. P, Q, and R are arbitrary coefficients representing different values. The equation is not directly related to the given problem.
