Walmart truck driver estimates that it will take him 12 hours to drive 1158 km. after 5 hours, he has drive 484 km. (a) according to his estimate, how long would it take him to drive 1 hour? show your number sentence and solution. (b)is he on schedule to arrive on time? explain your reasoning.

Obviously if it takes him around 12 hours to drive 1158 km. Then by ratio method we can calculate how much time it takes for him for one hour. So 1158/12 = 96.5 in one hour.

Now for the next part we can see he drove around 484 after 5 hours. So we can see his average of 1 hour by 484/5 = 96.8 so according to this pace he might arrive a little before time.

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!

chase is right because he already been to the swings and he know how far it will be to get there
