Jacob walked for x miles and then cycled for y miles between his home and the library. The number of miles Jacob cycled was 3 miles more than twice the number of miles he walked. The total number of miles Jacob walked and cycled was 6 miles. Which graph best shows the number of miles Jacob walked and cycled?

Answer :

irspow
w=x, c=2x+3

And we are told that w+c=6 so

x+2x+3=6

3x+3=6

3x=3

w=1 and c=5

So he walked 3 miles and cycled 5 miles.
