It took Amir 2 hours to hike 5 miles. On the first part of the hike, Amir averaged 3 miles per hour. For the second part of the
hike, the terrain was more difficult so his average speed decreased to 1.5 mile per hour. Which equation can be used to find t, the amount of time Amir spent hiking during the second, more difficult part of the hike?
The formula to find time spent hiking during the second part of hike was derived from the basic formula of average speed which is
the total number of speed during both parts of hike equals to the total
distance traveled divided by total time taken.
