Arianys wants to ride her bicycle 55.5 miles this week. She has already ridden 19 miles. If she rides for 5 more days, which equation could be used to determine, m, the average number of miles she would have to ride to meet her goal?

19m=55.5 − 5

5m=19−55.5

m=55.5−19/5

55.5=19m+5

The equation that could be used to determine, m, is 5m = 55.5 - 19. The correct option is C.

m = (55.5 - 19)/5

How do we come up with the Equation?

We are to deduce from the question the equation that may be used to calculate, m, the average number of miles she would have to ride to reach her objective.

Given:

"Arianys wants to ride her bicycle 55.5 miles"

and

"She has already ridden 19 miles"

Hence,

The number of miles she needs to ride more is

55.5 miles - 19 miles

= 36.5 miles

'

If m is the average number of miles she must cycle in 5 days to reach her objective,

Then, we can write that  

m = 36.5/5

OR

m = (55.5 - 19)/5

As a result, the equation that may be used to get m is 5m = 55.5 - 19.

C. m = (55.5 - 19)/5 is the right answer.
