<\/p>\nExample 1.
\nFred and Sam are a team in the local 138.2 mile bike-run-athon. Fred will compete in the bike race, and Sam will compete in the run. Fred bikes at an average speed of 8 miles per hour and Sam runs at an average speed of 4 miles per hour. The bike race begins at 6:00 a.m., followed by the run. Sam predicts he will finish the run at 2:33 a.m. the next morning.
\na. How many hours will it take them to complete the entire bike-run-athon?
\nAnswer:
\nFrom 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. the following day is 20 hours.
\n33 minutes in hours is \\(\\frac{33}{60}\\)=\\(\\frac{11}{20}\\)=0.55, or 0.55 hours.
\nTherefore, the total time it will take to complete the entire bike-run-athon is 20.55 hours.<\/p>\n
b. If t is how long it takes Fred to complete the bike race, in hours, write an expression to find Fred\u2019s total distance.
\nAnswer:
\nd=rt
\nd=8t
\nThe expression of Fred\u2019s total distance is 8t.<\/p>\n
c. Write an expression, in terms of t to express Sam\u2019s time.
\nAnswer:
\nSince t is Fred\u2019s time and 20.55 is the total time, then Sam\u2019s time would be the difference between the total time and Fred\u2019s time. The expression would be 20.55-t.<\/p>\n
d. Write an expression, in terms of t, that represents Sam\u2019s total distance.
\nAnswer:
\nd=rt
\nd=4(20.55-t)
\nThe expressions 4(20.55-t) or 82.2-4t is Sam\u2019s total distance.<\/p>\n
e. Write and solve an equation using the total distance both Fred and Sam will travel.
\nAnswer:
\n8t+4(20.55-t)=138.2
\n8t+82.2-4t=138.2
\n8t-4t+82.2=138.2
\n4t+82.2=138.2
\n4t+82.2-82.2=138.2-82.2
\n4t+0=56
\n(\\(\\frac{1}{4}\\))(4t)=(\\(\\frac{1}{4}\\))(56)
\nt=14
\nFred\u2019s time: 14 hours
\nSam\u2019s time: 20.55-t=20.55-14=6.55
\n6.55 hours<\/p>\n
f. How far will Fred bike, and how much time will it take him to complete his leg of the race?
\nAnswer:
\n8(14)=112
\nFred will bike 112 miles and will complete the bike race in 14 hours.<\/p>\n
g. How far will Sam run, and how much time will it take him to complete his leg of the race?
\nAnswer:
\n4(20.55-t)
\n4(20.55-14)
\n4(6.55)
\n26.2
\nSam will run 26.2 miles, and it will take him 6.55 hours.<\/p>\n

\u2192 How do you find the distance traveled?

<\/p>\n
\u2192 Explain how to write the equation to have only integers and no decimals. Write the equation.
\n\u2192 Since the decimal terminates in the tenths place, if we multiply every term by 10, the equation would result with only integer coefficients. The equation would be 40t+822=1382.<\/p>\n
Example 2.
\nShelby is seven times as old as Bonnie. If in 5 years, the sum of Bonnie\u2019s and Shelby\u2019s ages is 98, find Bonnie\u2019s present age. Use an algebraic approach.

\n(\\(\\frac{1}{8}\\))(8x)=(\\(\\frac{1}{8}\\))(88)
\nx=11
\nBonnie\u2019s present age is 11 years old.<\/p>\n
\u2192 The first step we must take is to write expressions that represent the present ages of both Bonnie and Shelby. The second step is to write expressions for future time or past time, using the present age expressions. How would the expression change if the time were in the past and not in the future?
\n\u2192 If the time were in the past, then the expression would be the difference between the present age and the amount of time in the past.<\/p>\n

The company has budgeted to replace the scanner when the trade-in value is $2,400. After how many years should the company plan to replace the machine in order to receive this trade-in value?
\nAnswer:
\n12,000(1-\\(\\frac{n}{5}\\))=2,400
\n12,000-2,400n=2,400

Write and solve an equation with integer coefficients.
\nAnswer:
\nt: the price of one shirt
\n4t-39.58=52.22
\n4t-39.58+39.58=52.22+39.58

When the first car arrived at the destination after 5 \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) hours of driving, both cars had driven a total of 599.5 miles. If the second car continues at the same average speed, how much time, to the nearest minute, will it take before the second car arrives?
\nAnswer:
\nLet r represent the speed in miles per hour of the faster car, then r-7 represents the speed in miles per hour of the slower car.
\n5 \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) (r)+5 \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) (r-7)=599.5
\n5 \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) (r+r-7)=599.5
\n5 \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) (2r-7)=599.5

\nThe faster car traveled 319 miles in 5 \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) hours.
\nThe slower car traveled 280.5 miles in 5 \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) hours. The remainder of their trip is 38.5 miles because

Question 11.
\nEmily counts the triangles and parallelograms in an art piece and determines that altogether, there are 42 triangles and parallelograms. If there are 150 total sides, how many triangles and parallelograms are there?
\nAnswer:
\nIf t represents the number of triangles that Emily counted, then 42-t represents the number of parallelograms that she counted.
\n3t+4(42-t)=150
\n3t+4(42+(-t))=150
\n3t+4(42)+4(-t)=150
\n3t+168+(-4t)=150
\n3t+(-4t)+168=150

Question 12.
\nStefan is three years younger than his sister Katie. The sum of Stefan\u2019s age 3 years ago and \\(\\frac{2}{3}\\) of Katie\u2019s age at that time is 12. How old is Katie now?
\nAnswer:
\nIf s represents Stefan\u2019s age in years, then s+3 represents Katie\u2019s current age, s-3 represents Stefan\u2019s age 3 years ago, and s also represents Katie\u2019s age 3 years ago.
\n(s-3)+(\\(\\frac{2}{3}\\))s=12

Question 13.
\nLucas bought a certain weight of oats for his horse at a unit price of $0.20 per pound. The total cost of the oats left him with $1. He wanted to buy the same weight of enriched oats instead, but at $0.30 per pound, he would have been $2 short of the total amount due. How much money did Lucas have to buy oats?
\nAnswer:
\nThe difference in the costs is $3.00 for the same weight in feed.
\nLet w represent the weight in pounds of feed.
\n0.3w-0.2w=3
\n0.1w=3

\nCost=($0.20 per pound)\u2219(30 pounds)
\nCost=$6.00
\nLucas paid $6 for 30 pounds of oats. Lucas had $1 left after his purchase, so he started with $7.<\/p>\n
