Let:
v = Olga's speed
t = the time Anna spent going to school (3 km/hour)
t/2 = the time Anna spent running back home with speed of 6 km/hour
So, t + t/2 = 3t/2 is the total time
In the meantime distance = speed*time and the both made the same distance we can put it as:
3t + 6*(t/2) = (3t/2)*v
6t = (3/2)tv divide both sides by t
(3/2)v = 6
v = 2*6/3
v = 4 km/hour
Olga's speed was 4 km/hour.
This is already in simplest form. it can't be reduced furthermore.
As a mixed number is 5 1/4
As a decimal is 5.25
So with this, we will be using proportions. To solve for x, our proportion will be 
Firstly, cross-multiply: 
Next, subtract 36 on both sides: 
Next, replace -9x with 3x-12x 
Next, factor x^2+3x and -12x-36 separately:
. After, rewrite it as 
Next, solve for x separately in the two parentheses:


Since we can't have a negative length, x = 12.
To solve for y, our proportion will be 
Firstly, cross-multiply: 
Next, just square root each side, and your answer will be (rounded to hundredths) 
In short, x = 12 and y = 10.39.
