Concept
Algebra is the part of mathematics in which letters and other general symbols are used to represent numbers
Given
1) Initial position of yours = 2.6m
2) Initial position of your friend = 9.2m
3) You walk double the distance your friend walks
Find
Where do you both meet
Solution
you are at the position x = 2.6 m
friend is at the position x = 9.2m
Let the distance covered by your friend be xm
So the distance covered by you is 2x
When you and your friend meet
2x + 2.6 = 9.2 - x
3x = 9.2 - 2.6
3x = 6.6
x = 2.2
Position where you both meet.
2.6 + 2x or 9.2 - x
= 2.6 + 4.4 or 9.2 - 2.2
= 7.0 or 7.0
At 7 m you and your friend meets.
