Answer:

The first option will take a total of 3.2 hours while the second option will take just 3 hours

This shows that the second option is faster

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to compare two hiking options and see the one which is faster.

At any point in time;

Distance = speed * time

In the first option, he could hike at 3 mph for two hours.

Total distance covered would be 3 * 2 = 6 miles

Distance left = 12 miles - 6 miles = 6 miles

Time taken to hike 6 miles at 5 mph will be ; 6/5 = 1.2 hours

Total time for the first type hiking = 1.2 hours + 2 hours = 3.2 hours

For the second option;

Time = distance/speed = 12 miles/4 mph = 3 hours

We can see that the second option is faster

The sum of two consecutive integers is 65. what are the two integers? show steps please.
Gnoma [55]

Hi student, let me help you out! :)

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

We are asked to find the two integers, given that they are consecutive, and their sum is 65.

\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}

  • Consecutive integers are right next to each other, like 12 and 13. or 65 and 66.

Let the first integer be x, and let the second integer be x+1.

Their sum is 65. Let's set up our equation:

\longmapsto\sf{x+x+1=65}

Combine like terms:

\longmapsto\sf{2x+1=65}

Subtract 1 from both sides of the equal sign:

\longmapsto\sf{2x=64}

Divide both sides by 2:

\longmapsto\sf{x=32}

To find the second integer, subtract the first integer from the sum of the two integers:

\longmapsto\pmb{65-32}

\longmapsto\pmb{33}

The integers are: 33 and 32.

Hope it helps you out! :D
