For every 5 yards you run jill runs 6 yards if you had run 30yards then how far has jill run if jill runs 54 yards then how far have you run

x = -87

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operation and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

First, subtract 265 from both sides of the equation:

3x + 265 (-265) = 4 (-265)

3x = 4 - 265

3x = -261

Next, divide 3 from both sides:

(3x)/3 = (-261)/3

x = -261/3

x = -87

x = -87 is your answer.
