Answer: the rate uphill is 6 mph.
The rate downhill is 10 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the rate at which the jogger ran uphill.
The jogger runs 4 miles per hour faster downhill than uphill. This means that speed at which the jogger ran downhill is (x + 4) mph
Time = distance/speed
if the jogger can runs 5 miles downhill, then the time taken to run downhill is
5/(x + 4)
At the same time, the jogger runs 3 miles uphill. It means that the time taken to run uphill is
3/x
Since the time is the same, it means that
5/(x + 4) = 3/x
Cross multiplying, it becomes
5 × x = 3(x + 4)
5x = 3x + 12
5x - 3x = 12
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
The rate downhill is 6 + 4 = 10 mph
ANSWER
EXPLANATION
We were told that the motorist travelled 250 miles on 11 gallons of gas. This implies that,
Now we want to find how far he could go on 16 gallons.
All other things being equal, the motorist should cover more than 250 miles with 16 gallons of gas.
Recall that: If more, less divides.
This implies that,
Therefore the correct answer is C.
The answer is 25%
(1)
If 64 is 100%, 48 is how much percent:
64 : 100% = 48 : x
x = 100% * 48 : 64
x = 75
(2)
Percent of decrease is:
100% - x = 100% - 75% = 25%

Chapter 3 of Wheels of Change .
But the bicycle craze had a more lasting impact on women’s clothing than just the use of bloomers. Thanks in large part to cycling, the innovation of rational dress reformers were starting to take effect by the end of the 1890s. Corsets were on their way out, dresses were getting shorter, and women no longer wore the heavy, bulky undergarments that gave them round, unnatural shapes. These changes went a long way toward unburdening women and setting the stage for them to be healthier and more active in the coming century.
Based on the excerpt, women in the 1890s became more independent and their lives improved as a result of
a rise in the popularity of bicycles.
a rise in the popularity of corsets.
cycling becoming less socially acceptable.
clothing becoming more restrictive.
