Ben participated in a race. During the first half of the race, he walked 3 miles and ran at a rate of 5 miles per hour for x hours. During the second half of the race, he walked for
2 miles and ran at a rate of 5.5 miles per hour for x hours. What equation could you
write to solve for the number of hours Ben ran during each half of the race? Let y
represent the number of miles in half the race. Write two equations, one for the first half
of the race and one for the second half. How could you transform these two equations
to be the same as the original equation you wrote to solve for x? What do you think this
means about solving for the variables in a situatiorz represented by two equations?
