Answer:

Her usual rate is 0.8333 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity formula is given by:

v = \frac{d}{t}

In which d is the distance and t is the time.

She completed the first half of the walk 1 mi/h faster than usual

Her usual rate is v. 1mph faster is v + 1.

The second half of the walk 2 mi/h slower than the first half.

The first half is v + 1.

2mph slower is v + 1 - 2 = v - 1. Then

Total rate:

7.2 hours, and 6 miles. So

One half is v+1 and the other is v - 1. This is why each is multiplied by 0.5.

0.5(v + 1) + 0.5(v - 1) = \frac{6}{7.2}

0.5v + 0.5 + 0.5v - 0.5 = 0.8333

v = 0.8333

Her usual rate is 0.8333 miles per hour.

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hours bowled by Isaiah and Wanda be X

Isaiah spent 16 dollars on shoe rental and 2X on bowling

Wanda spent 13 dollars on shoe rental and 5X on bowling

Since they spent the same amount, set up an equation

16+2X=13+5X

subtract 2X on either side, then subtract 13 from either side we get

3X=3

divide both sides by 3

X=1
