Answer: the rate uphill is 6 mph.
The rate downhill is 10 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the rate at which the jogger ran uphill.
The jogger runs 4 miles per hour faster downhill than uphill. This means that speed at which the jogger ran downhill is (x + 4) mph
Time = distance/speed
if the jogger can runs 5 miles downhill, then the time taken to run downhill is
5/(x + 4)
At the same time, the jogger runs 3 miles uphill. It means that the time taken to run uphill is
3/x
Since the time is the same, it means that
5/(x + 4) = 3/x
Cross multiplying, it becomes
5 × x = 3(x + 4)
5x = 3x + 12
5x - 3x = 12
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
The rate downhill is 6 + 4 = 10 mph
Answer:
5 5/16
Step-by-step explanation:
you just divide 42 1/2 by 8
Answer: John's situation
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation for each situation.
John’s situation:
The amount of money that John has (y) is equal to his school account (40) minus the product of the number of days (x) and the amount he spends per day( 3)
y =40-3x
As days pass by, John has less money (negative rate of change)
Judy's situation
The amount of money that Judy has in her savings account (y) is equal to the product of the number of days (x) and the amount he saves per day (20/2)
y = x (20/2)
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
12 in
Step-by-step explanation:
the scale factor of the enlarged frame is found by comparing the widths
original width : enlarged width = 2 : 6 = 1 : 3
That is 3 times the original width , then
enlarged height = 4 × 3 = 12 in
