Part B. If Kyle runs 4 miles, how many miles does Chelsey run?

Solution :-

Let the miles walk by Chelesy be x

Now,

x = 4 + 2.8

x = 6.8 miles

Therefore,

1. x = Kyle's mile walked + 2.8
2. 6.8 miles

Answer 2

6.8 miles

Explanation:

First, create the equation representing Chelsey's miles compared to Kyle's:

c = k + 2.8

Next, find how many miles Chelsey runs if Kyle runs 4 miles.

Plug in 4 as k into the equation:

c = k + 2.8

c = 4 + 2.8

c = 6.8

So, Chelsey runs 6.8 miles
