Andrew ran 5 miles less than two times the number of miles Bernadette ran. Andrew ran a total of 13 miles. Write an equation to determine how many miles Bernadette ran.



13 = 2x − 5
x − 5 = 2(13)
x/13 = 2(5)
13 + 2x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

→ Andrew ran 5 miles less than 2 times the no. of miles Bernadette ran.
