In an endurance race, Alyson rode her bicycle 7 miles less than Jeff. Together they rode 39 miles. How far did Alyson ride?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Distance cover by Alyson = 16 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance cover together = 39 miles

Assume;

Distance cover by Jeff = a

Distance cover by Alyson = a - 7

Find:

Distance cover by Alyson

Computation:

a + (a - 7) = 39

2a - 7 = 39

2a = 46

a = 23

Distance cover by Alyson = a - 7

Distance cover by Alyson = 23 - 7

Distance cover by Alyson = 16 miles
