During a weekend trip, Selena drove 4 times as far as Jason. Altogether they drove 380 miles. Which equation can be solved for x, the number of miles Jason drove?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4x+x=360 (whole equation)

x=72 (answer)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance driven by Jason be x.

Selena drove four times as far.

Hence, distance Selena drove is 4x.

They drove 380 miles altogether.

Hence, 4x + x = 380

5x = 380

x = 72

Hope this helped!
