Question

please help one math problem

A construction crew is lengthening a road. The road started with a length of 53 miles, and the crew is adding 3 miles to the road each day.

Let L represent the total length of the road (in miles), and let D represent the number of days the crew has worked. Write an equation relating L to D . Then use this equation to find the total length of the road after the crew has worked 38 days.

Answer 1

L=53+3D
"L" is the total length
"3D" represents 3 miles times the # of days worked
