On an uphill hike Ted climbs at 3mph. Going back down, he runs at 5mph. If it takes him forty minutes longer to climb up than run down, then what is the length of the hike? if possible, I would like a clear equation.

He hiked 10 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

rate x time = distance

The distance up and the distance down are equal

3 mi/1 hr  x (h hours + 2/3 hr) = 5 mi/1 hr  x  h hours

3h + 2 = 5h

2 = 2h

h = 1 hour

3mi/hr  x 1 2/3 hr = 5 miles

5 mi/hr x  1 hr = 5 miles

i dont have an answer

step-by-step explanation:

11.2

step-by-step explanation:

when doing tangent the tangent of the angle is equal to the opposite side from the angle over the adjacent side to the angle.

tan43 = x / 12

move 12 over by multiplying each side by 12

12tan43 = x

x = about 11.2
