Kerrie and shelly rode their bicycles four more than three times as many miles in the afternoon as in the morning on a trip to the lake. if the entire trip was 112 miles, how far did they ride in the morning and how far in the afternoon?

the morning was 27 miles,

the afternoon was 85 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
