Answer:

[tex]Total = 2.35n[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Monday = n

Tuesday = 90% of Monday

Wednesday = 50% of Tuesday

Required

Determine the total miles

We have:

Tuesday = 90% of Monday

Substitute n for Monday

Tuesday = 90% of n

[tex]Tuesday = 90\% * n[/tex]

Express percentage to decimal

[tex]Tuesday = 0.90 * n[/tex]

[tex]Tuesday = 0.90n[/tex]

We also have that:

Wednesday = 50% of Tuesday

Wednesday = 50% * Tuesday

Substitute 0.90n for Tuesday

[tex]Wednesday = 50\% * 0.90n[/tex]

Express percentage to decimal

[tex]Wednesday = 0.50 * 0.90n[/tex]

[tex]Wednesday = 0.45n[/tex]

The total number of miles is:

[tex]Total = Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday[/tex]

[tex]Total = n + 0.90n + 0.45n[/tex]

[tex]Total = 2.35n[/tex]
