Respuesta :
The bus drop her off from school at a distance of 220 miles.
Explanation:
Given:
Total miles, T = 234 miles
Walking distance, x = 12 miles
City bus distance, y = 2 miles
Distance of bus drop from school, z = ?
T = x + y + z
234 = 12 + 2 + z
z = 234 - 14
z = 220 miles
Therefore, the bus drop her off from school at a distance of 220 miles.
Distance the bus drop her off from school is [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] miles .
Step-by-step explanation:
Correct question is : Clara travels a total of 2 3/4 miles to school each day. She walks 1/2 mile from her home to the bus stop. She then travels 2 miles on the city bus. In miles, how far does the bus drop her off from school?
Let's solve it:
- Clara travels a total of 2 3/4 miles to school each day i.e. [tex]2\frac{3}{4} = \frac{11}{4}[/tex] miles .
- She walks 1/2 mile from her home to the bus stop.
- She then travels 2 miles on the city bus .
Distance the bus drop her off from school
⇒ [tex]\frac{11}{4} - ( \frac{1}{2} + 2)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{11}{4} - ( \frac{5}{2} )[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{11-10}{4}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Therefore, Distance the bus drop her off from school is [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] miles .
