Question

Write an algebraic equation using an appropriate variable for the following statement:
Amir rode his bicycle to reach school and rode the same distance to reach back home. Later in the evening, he rode $150m$ in the park.

Answer 1

Forming an algebraic equation:
Let the distance covered from home to school be $xm$.

$\therefore$The distance covered from school to home $=xm$

Distance covered from home to park $=150m$

$\therefore$ Total distance covered $=x+x+150=2x+150m$

Thus, the total distance covered by Amir is $2x+150m$.
