Find how many kilometers they traveled by bike.(Help setting an equation up)

olivia14:

Hoodmemes:

ight first u would do how much they bused= x and biked= 80+x the total of 350 km so 350=x+x+80

Hoodmemes:

Im thinking u should simply the equation as 350=2x+80 270=2x 135=x

olivia14:

is there any parentheses?

Hoodmemes:

Then try and find how far they biked= biked=80+x biked=80+135 biked=(blank)

olivia14:

so the equation i need to solve would be 350=2x+80 ? no?

Hoodmemes:

Ok now u would 350 = 2x + 80 l -80 -80 l Subtract 80 from both sides

Hoodmemes:

So now u would 270 = 2x l divide both sides by 2 2 2 l

olivia14:

then that gives you x=135?

Hoodmemes:

yess

olivia14:

is there any other steps or is that it?

Hoodmemes:

Now 350 - 135 = (blank) = km on bike

olivia14:

215?

Hoodmemes:

yes

olivia14:

and thats it right?

Hoodmemes:

yes so now it would be 135 on buss and 215 on bike

Hoodmemes:

Im srry if it took to long for me to answer due to some stuff
