mercedes walks 1.93 kilometers to a neighbors house in 23 minutes. assuming she walks at a constant speed write a proportion that represents how many kilometers. y, mercedes can walk in x minutes. then solve your proportion for y

Mercedes can walk 0.083913 km per minute

Here, we want to write a proportion and solve it

We want to get the number of kilometers y that mercedes can walk in x minutes

To get the value of y, we simply solve the proportion

Mathematically, the proportion would be;

So, we proceed to divide the number of kilometers walked by the number of minutes

The proportion in this case will be;

So, what this means is that she can walk 0.083913 kilometers in a minutes

So if she walks 0.083913 kilometers in a minute, then, the number of kilometers y, walked in x minutes will be;

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
