Answer: he hiked 5.6 miles up the canyon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent his speed hiking uphill.
His speed running downhill was 2.8 mph greater than his speed hiking uphill. This means that his speed running downhill would be x + 2.8
Distance = speed × time
Kevin hiked up Lamb’s Canyon in 2 hours. This means that the distance covered by hiking uphill is 2 × x = 2x
He ran back downhill in 1 hour. This means that the distance covered by running downhill is 1 × (x + 2.8) =
x + 2.8
Since the distance uphill is the same as the distance downhill, then
2x = x + 2.8
2x - x = 2.8
x = 2.8
Therefore, the distance hiked up the canyon is
2x = 2 × 2.8 = 5.6 miles
To solve this, you need to isolate/get the variable "m" by itself in the equation:
1. 2m - 1 = 3m Subtract 2m on both sides to get "m" on one side of the equation
2m - 2m - 1 = 3m - 2m
-1 = m
2. 2m = 1 + m Subtract m on both sides to get "m" on one side of the equation
2m - m = 1 + m - m
m = 1
3. m - 1 = 2 Add 1 on both sides to get "m" by itself
m - 1 + 1 = 2 + 1
m = 3
4. 2 + m = 3 Subtract 2 on both sides to get "m" by itself
m = 1
5. -2 + m = 1 Add 2 on both sides to get "m" by itself
m = 3
6. 3 = 1 + m Subtract 1 on both sides to get "m" by itself
2 = m
