The answer is 22 minutes:

20x for Tatsu and 10x for Andy

Ed is planning daily walking workouts on the same distance of 12 km in the morning and in the evening. Usually he is walking at
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

5 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x km/h be Ed's rate in the evening, then x+1 km/h is his rate in the morning. It takes him

  • \dfrac{12}{x+1} hours in the morning to pass 12 km;
  • \dfrac{12}{x} hours in the evening to pass 12 km.

In total, it takes him 5 hours 24 minutes (5\dfrac{24}{60}=5.4 hours), then

\dfrac{12}{x+1}+\dfrac{12}{x}=5.4.

Solve this equation:

\dfrac{12x+12(x+1)}{(x+1)x}=5.4,\\ \\12x+12x+12=5.4x^2+5.4x,\\ \\5.4x^2 -18.6x-12=0,\\ \\54x^2-186x-120=0,\\ \\9x^2 -31x-20=0,\\ \\D=(-31)^2-4\cdot 9\cdot (-20)=1,681=41^2,\\ \\x_{1,2}=\dfrac{-(-31)\pm\sqrt{41^2}}{2\cdot 9}=\dfrac{31\pm41}{18}=-\dfrac{5}{9},\ 4\ km/h.

Ed's rate cannot be negative, thus x=4 km/h. His morning rate is x+1=5 km/h.
