    Answer:

    x+(3x+2)=30

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let

    x —-> the length of Zach’s car

    y —-> the length of Ginny’s car

    we know that

    The sum of the lengths of both cars is 30 inches

    so

    x+y=30 —-> equation A

    Ginny’s car is 2 more than 3 times the length of Zach’s car

    so

    y=3x+2 —-> equation B

    substitute equation B in equation A

    x+(3x+2)=30
