Sagot :

Answer: Brian ran 9 miles

Sonia ran 24 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's Brian's distance be represented by x.

Since Sonia ran 6 miles more than twice as far as Brian. This will be:

= (2 × x) + 6

= 2x + 6

Therefore,

x + 2x+6 = 33

3x + 6 = 33

3x = 33 - 6.

3x = 27

x = 27/3

x = 9

Brian ran 9 miles

Sonia ran = 2x+6 = 2(9).+ 6 = 18+6 = 24 miles
