b + w = 4
w = 4 - b
5w + 33b = 118
5(4 - b) + 33b = 118
Can you solve for b and answer?

asked 11/14/23Jim began a 118-mile bicycle trip to build up stamina for a triathlete competition.Unfortunately, his bicycle chain broke, so he finished the trip walking. The whole trip took 4 hours. If Jim walks at a rate of 5 miles per hour and rides at 33 miles per hour, find the amount of time he spent on the bicycle.
