Question

FIELD TRIP The marching band at Jefferson High School is taking a field trip from Lansing, Michigan, to Detroit, Michigan. The bus driver was
told to stop 53 miles into the trip. If the rest of the trip is 41 miles and the entire journey can be represented by the expression 3x + 16, find the
value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The question requires you to find the value of x given the expression and distance

The value of x = 26

Driver's first stoppage = 53 miles

Distance remaining = 41 miles

Total distance = Driver's first stoppage + Distance remaining

= 53 + 41

= 94 miles

Given expression:

3x + 16

If 3x + 16 = 94

Then,

3x = 94 - 16

3x = 78

x = 78 / 3

x = 26
