Answer:

(a)

A to B to C =40 yards

(b)

w<40

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

The distance between point A and point B is 15 yards

AB=15 yards

The distance between point B and point C is 25 yards

BC=25 yards

(a)

A to B to C = AB+BC

A to B to C =15+25

A to B to C =40 yards

(b)

direct distance between A to C  or AC

It must be less  than distance between A to B to C

AC< AB+BC

AC< 15+25

AC< 40 yards

w<40

John is a trail runner who decides to take a day off work to run up and down a local mountain. He runs uphill at an average spee
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Average speed

= 5 5/6 mph , or

= 5.83 mph (to 2 decimals)

Step-by-step explanation:

Average speed is total distance divided by the total time it takes to cover the given distance.

Since uphill = 5 mph, and downhill = 7 mph, we know the average speed is between 5 and 7 mph.

Let

x = distance uphill, and also distance downhill.

Total distance = 2x miles

Total time = x/5 + x/7 hours  = 12x/35 hours

Average speed

= total distance/total time

= 2x / (12x/35) mph

= 70x / 12x

= 5 5/6 mph

= 5.83 mph (to 2 decimals)
