What is the explanation please help me

Yes. If the first friend descended 0.11 mile (-0.11) and the second friend descended 0.12 mile (-0.12), then the second friend had to have caught up to the first friend knowing that the second friend descended at least 0.11 mile. Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 5636.7

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10

2

x=5
