Nate and Maya are building model cars. Maya's car is 3 inches less than 2 times the length of Nate's car. The sum of the lengths of both cars is 26 inches. Write an equation to determine the lengths of Nate's and Maya's cars.

AngeI:

Hello, welcome to QuestionCove cx Ok so the question would be 26=2x+3 Since its 3 less that means you would have to add 3 to get the total of 26

zanyha:

AngeI:

Do you have to solve it?

zanyha:

no

AngeI:

my apologies I forgot an x 26=2x+x-3

zanyha:
