URGENT PLS HELP

John is driving around town. When he reaches the gas station, he notes that he has traveled 18 miles. He reaches home 2 hours later and notes that he has traveled 34 miles. If d represents the distance and t represents the time, in hours, John has traveled since the gas station, which of the following equations can be used to model this situation?

1. d = 18t + 52
2. d = 16 + 18t
3. d = 8t + 18
4. d = 8t - 18

Respuesta :

2. d=16 + 18t because 18 represents the miles he noted and adding the 16 would be 34. Since t is representing time, and you don’t know in how much time he traveled 18 miles it’d be with the 18.
