Boyd · Answer 1

Therefore, total number of miles he biked in the two days=10x+12 (13-x).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Yesterday, Hans ride bike = 10 miles per hour.

Let X be the total number of hour he biked yesterday

Today he ride bike = 12 miles per hour.

In two days total he biked = 13 hour.

Explanation:

Total number of miles he ride yesterday = 10x

Today he bike ride = (13-X) hour

Total number of miles he ride today=12 (13-x)

Therefore, total number of miles he biked in the two days=10x+12 (13-x).
