Question

Answer 1

@tcarroll010 ?

Answer 2

i think its 6m

Answer 3

I have the answer as being 12 miles but don't know how to figure it out

Answer 4

both the distances are the same so by taking the distance x, total time is given by x/10+x/6 = 1.6 hours thats how i did it

Answer 5

Rt=d so how would I set this up?

Answer 6

Time=dist/speed

Answer 7

Time there+time back=1.6

Answer 8

I set it up as 96=d/16
Then divided 96 by 16 and got 6 then multiplied by 2 since 6 would have been half

Answer 9

d/10+d/6=1.6

Answer 10

12 is suppose to be answer I got twelve by doing it
