Answer 1

x + 338 = 550.

Explanation:

Total distance from Atlanta Georgia to Orlando Florida = 550 miles.

Distance GEN traveled yesterday = 338 miles.

Number of miles she drove today + Distance GEN traveled yesterday = Total distance from Atlanta Georgia to Orlando Florida.

If we take she drove x miles today, we could write an equation as

x + 338 = 550.

In order to find the number of miles she drove today, we need to solve the above equation for x.
