(from Lesson 4)
Andre ran 5 laps of a track in 8 minutes at a constant speed. It took Andre x minutes
to run each lap. Select all the equations that represent this situation.
a. (571) x = 8
b. 5 + x = 8
c. 5 - x=8
d. 5 + x = 8
(-1)

5x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

At a constant speed, Andre ran 5 laps of a track in 8 minutes. Each lap run by Andre took x minutes to complete.

Since the speed of Andre was constant, so each of the five laps took x minutes to run by Andre.

Therefore, the equation that represents the situation is

5x = 8 (Answer)
