So, we know that it takes Sam 1 mph up and 9 mph down and it takes Liam both 2 mph down and up the hill. So if we divide the 2 mph for Liam by 2 miles (the whole length of the hill) we will get 1 or 1 hour. Then we do 1/1 (i don't know how to explain this part of why we do that, sorry) and than we do 1 / 9 and we get 1/9 so we add them and get 1 1/9 so that's Sam's time.
So, Liam took one hour and Sam took 1 and 1/9 hours, in conclusion liam was faster

Answer:
x = 21.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to use the law of sins
sin 42 sin x
--------- = ----------
22 12
12 sin 42 = 22 sin x
12 sin 42 /22 = sin x
Taking the inverse sin of each side
sin^-1(12/22 sin 42) = sin^-1(sin x)
21.40637223 =x
To the nearest tenth
x = 21.4
