Some of the students at Kahlo Middle School like to ride their bikes to and from school. They always ride unless it rains. Let d be the distance in miles from a student's home to the school. Write two different expressions that represent how far a student travels by bike in a four week period if there is one rainy day each week.

Answer:

32d

Step-by-step explanation:

-The students ride their bikes to and from school every day. The distance is thus;

[tex]d_t=2d[/tex]

-Taking that there are 5 school days per week and that it rains in one per week. the total number of days is:

[tex]Days=Days \ per \ week \times \ number \ of \ weeks\\\\=(5-1)\times 4\\\\=16\ days[/tex]

Now, we multiply the distance per day by the total number of days:

[tex]Distance, D=2d\times 16\\\\=32d[/tex]

Hence, the total distance in a 4-week period is expressed as 32d ( where d is the distance from home to school).
