god loves you...
Alexandria wants to go hiking on Saturday. she will consider these conditions when she chooses which several parks to visit: she wants to hike for 2 hours she wants to spend no more than 8 hours away from home she can drive an average speed of 65 mph to and from any park
write and solve an inequality to find possible distances from Alexandria's home to a park that satisfies the conditions. @SolomonZelman ik :P
I copy pasted what have so far, it is a round trip
umm....not really sure but i believe it's a round trip cuz it says "to and from any park"
it seems a ridiculous case as far as actual, real case. Having an average speed of mph including the little streets she has to take when going into a neighborhood this means she drives more than 65 mph at the highway. Anyway, let x be the number of hours for the trip: \(\large\color{black}{ x\le8 }\) but you take away 2 hours because she will be hiking (considering your fake case where we don't count the time for ticket-purchase and other such things) \(\large\color{black}{ x\le6 }\) so 6 hours is just for driving. for a single drive (from home to park, OR the other way) \(\large\color{black}{ 2x\le6 }\)
the inequality to start with is: \(\large\color{black}{ \color{green}{2x}\color{red}{+2}\le\color{blue}{8} }\)
the green is the (1-way) distance to or from the park. the blue is the number of hours she is away from home the red is the number of hours she is hiking
thanks @SolomonZelman :)
oh, yw!
