Stu hiked a trail at an average rate of 3 miles per hour. He ran back on the same trail at an average rate of 5 miles per hour.

He traveled for a total of 3 hours. Which equation can be used to find the time it took Stu to hike the trail? 3t = 5 3t = 5(3 – t) 3 + t = 5 + (3 – t) 3t + 5(3 – t) = 3

3t = 5(3-t)
3t = 15 - 5t
3t + 5t = 15
8t = 15
t = 15/8
t = 1 7/8 

7/8 * 60 mins = 52.50 minutes

t = 1 hour and 52.5 minutes

It took Stu 1 hour and 52.5 minutes to hike the trail one way.

A scuba diver wants to descend at an average rate of at least 7 feet per minute for 5 minutes. The table shows how many feet the
gladu [14]

The scuba diver must descend 3 feet in the fifth minute to meet the goal.

Why?

To find how many feet does the scuba diver need to descend to reach the goal of 35 feet in 5 minutes, we need to calculate how many feet he did descend on the first 4 minutes.

So, calculating we have:

FirstMinute=9ft\\SecondMinute=11ft\\ThirdMinute=5ft\\FourthMinute=7ft\\Total=9ft+11ft+5ft+7ft=32ft\\\\Goal=35ft\\\\Needed=Goal-Total(4Minutes)\\\\Needed=35ft-32ft=3ft

Hence, we can see that at the 4 minute, he has only descended 32ft. It means that he need to descend 3 feet more in the fifth minute.

Have a nice day!

Find five consecutive integers whose sum is 195.
Elodia [21]
X + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) + (x + 4) = 195

(Make sure you don't add "x+5" because "x + 0" is an included term.)

5x + 10 = 195
5x = 185
x = 37

Hope this helps!

Then multiply all the parts correctly.

-21 + 60 - 9

-21 + 60 = 39

-9
