Question 175954This question is from textbook Prealgebra and Introductory Algebra
: It takes Erin 24 min less time to commute to work than it does George. Suppose that the variable x stands for the time it takes George to get to work. Then x-24 stands for the time it takes Erin to get to work. How long does it take Erin to get to work if it takes George 56 mins? This question is from textbook Prealgebra and Introductory Algebra
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = time it takes for george to go to work.
x - 12 = time it takes for erin to go to work.
---
x = 56
x - 24 = 32
---
if it takes george 56 minutes to get to work, then it takes erin 32 minutes to get to work.
