Answer 12

No those answers are incorrect
1 Variable = x . That is the number of miles that Mgiuel ran
2. number of miles Chris ran is x + 4
3 x + (x + 4) = 18
2x + 4 = 18
x = 14/2 = 7

Miguel ran 7 miles

Answer 13

1 Variable = x . That is the number of miles that Mgiuel ran
2. number of miles Chris ran is x + 4
3 x + (x + 4) = 18

x = 14/2 = 7
