It can't be for sure a perpendicular bisector cuz you don't know what kind of triangle you are dealing with so that one's out.  It's not necessarily an angle bisector either for the same reason. A median means that PS will go through the opposite side right in the center, and again, depending upon what type of triangle you have, this could be true...So it is an altitude, which is like a height of a triangle. It drops down from a vertex and forms a right angle with wherever it goes through. So D.

On an uphill hike, Ted climbs at a rate of 3 miles an hour. Going down, he runs at a rate of 5 miles an hour. If it takes him 40
telo118 [61]

It takes 40 minutes more going up or 40/60 = 0.67 hours more.

Let us say that:

t = the time required for him running down

t + 0.67 = time required for him running up

 

Since the distance of running up and down must be equal therefore:

(3 miles / hr) * (t + 0.67) = (5 miles / h) * t

3 t + 2.01 = 5 t

2 t = 2.01

t = 1.005 hr

 

So the total length of the hike is:

length = 2 * (5 miles / hr) * (1.005 hr)

<span>length = 10.05 miles</span>

Parking in a student lot costs $2 for the first half hour and $1.75 for each hour thereafter. A partial hour is charged the same
Masteriza [31]

An easier way to think of this problem is just keep adding for each additional hour: 


0.5 hours --> $2 

1.5 hrs --> $3.75 

2.5 hrs --> $5.50 

3.5 hrs --> $7.25 


and since you can only spend $7, the maximum time is 2.5 hours
