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.

Write a word sentence about the time.
The total time traveled was

hours.
Translate the sentence to get the equation.

Use the Zero Product Property.

The solution

is unreasonable because

−5=−

3
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.
Downhill:
10 mph

20 miles
5 mph
=20 miles
Uphill:
10−5=5 mph
(10−5) mph⋅
20 miles
10−5 mph
=20 miles
The total time traveled was
6
hours.
Dennis’ downhill speed was
10
mph and his uphill speed was
5
mph.
2+3+7+8=20
2 x 3+7+ 8= 21
2 x 7 + 3+ 8= 25
8 x 2 + 7 + 3= 26
3 x 7 +8 - 2= 27
8 x 3 + 7 - 2= 29
8 x 7 ÷ 2 + 3= 31
7 x 2 x 3 -8 = 34
There is a couple, but i am not doing all of them
I hope this helps anyway :).
1000 meters are 1km so 700 meters
