Question 181628
Helen took the bus on her way to school and ran the rest of the way. She ran 3 mins. longer than she rode. If it took her 15 mins. to arrive in school, how long was her bus ride? 
i tried to solve the problem, I want to know if this is right pLease I need your Help:: 
EQ: x + x + 3 = 15
2x + 3 = 15
2x = 15 - 3
2x/2 = 12/2
x= 6 minutes 
Is this right??
--------------------------
Your "x" is time she rode
Your "x+3" is time she walked.
--------------
Your work is correct.
Cheers,
