Heather finished a race in 58.4 seconds, which was 2.6 seconds less than her practice time. write and solve an equation to find heathers practice time

a). T=P-2.6

b).  Practice time (P)=61 Seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Let T be Heather's time in the race=58.4 seconds, and P=Heather's practice time which is less by 2.6 seconds as compared to her time in the race

This can be expressed as: EquationT=P-2.6

b). Substituting values for T and P in the equation;

58.4=P-2.6

Solving for P

P=58.4+2.6=61 seconds

Heather's practice time=61 seconds
