Answer:

m < -18/19

Step-by-step explanation:

8m + 95 < -87 m +5

Add 87m to each side

8m+87m + 95 < -87 m+87m +5

95m + 95 < 5

Subtract 95 from each side

95m + 95-95 < 5-95

95m < -90

Divide each side by 95

95m/95 < -90/95

m < -18/19

Inessa05 [86]

Laura paddles in her canoe at a speed of 5 mph for 5 miles.

As we know that

$\text{Distance=Speed*Time}\\ \\ Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed} \\$

Substitute the values we get

$Time=\frac{5m}{5mph}=1hr.......(i)\\$

Laura hops on her windsurfer and sails for 12 miles at a speed of 6 mph.

Again using the above formula we can write

$Time=\frac{12m}{6mph}=2hr.......(ii)\\$

Hence from equation (i) and (ii), we can say total time of travel $=1hr+2hr=3hr\\$
