See below for the algebraic expressions of the scenarios.
<h3>How to represent the scenarios?</h3>
The given parameters are:
- Distance = 2400 feet
- Unit of time = Minutes
<u>Scenario 1</u>
Represent the speed with x.
So, we have:
Speed = Distance/Time
The time is given as:
Time = 10 minutes
Since he did not stop at all;
The speed is
x = 2400/10
Multiply both sides by 10
10x = 2400
The above expression represents the scenario 1.
<u>Scenario 2</u>
Represent the speed with x, and time with t
So, we have:
Speed = Distance/Time
The time to reach halfway is given as:
Time = 6 minutes
He stopped for 1 minute, before continuing at the same initial speed
So, the total time it 13 minutes
The speed is represented as:
x = 2400/13
Multiply both sides by 13
13x = 2400
The above expression represents the scenario 2.
<u>Scenario 3</u>
Represent the speed with x, and time with t
So, we have:
Speed = Distance/Time
The time to reach halfway is given as:
Time = 6 minutes
He stopped for 1 minute, before continuing at twice the initial speed
So, the total time is
t = 6 + 1 + 1/2 * 6 minutes
t = 10 minutes
The speed is represented as:
x = 2400/10
Multiply both sides by 10
10x = 2400
The above expression represents the scenario 3.
