Answer: Downhill:10mph Uphill:5mph
Step-by-step explanation:
We are looking for Dennis’s downhill speed.
Let
r=
Dennis’s downhill speed.
His uphill speed is
5
miles per hour slower.
Let
r−5=
Dennis’s uphill speed.
Enter the rates into the chart. The distance is the same in both directions,
20
miles.
Since
D=rt
, we solve for
t
and get
t=
D
r
.
We divide the distance by the rate in each row and place the expression in the time column.

The solution

is unreasonable because

and his uphill speed cannot be negative. So, Dennis's downhill speed is
10
mph and his uphill speed is
10−5=5
mph.
Check. Is
10
mph a reasonable speed for biking downhill? Yes.

Dennis’ downhill speed was

Volume= Length * width ( aka Base ) * height
Break up the figure into easier figures, a small square and a bigger square.
Small square- 3*2*1 = 6 cm
Large Square- 7*6*1 = 42 cm
42 + 6 = 48 cm. But wait! You have to take one more step, which is minus-ing 6 from 48. Why? Notice that there is a little area where a side of the small square meets the bigger square. That little area is worth 3 cm ( length is 3, height is 1 cm ) times 2 ( 3 cm is one side, another 3 cm is the other side from the other square ) = 6 cm.
Your total answer should be 42. ( or 48, if your teacher doesn't count the area where the squares meet/join together ).

Answer:
B. 21x + 40 ≤ 124
Step-by-step Explanation:
Maximum amount budgeted = $124 (this means they can't spend more than this)
x = number of people
Cost per head = $21
Given that Mr Walter already spent $40, which is part of the money budgeted, the number of people that can go canoeing cam be expressed with the following inequality:
21x + 40 ≤ 124
(note: the amount total to be spent will either be equal to or greater than $124, because it's the maximum amount budgeted for spending).
