Gilda walks to the train station. If she walks at the rate of 3 mph, she misses her train by 7 minutes. However, if she
walks at the rate of 4 mph, she reaches the station 5 minutes before the arrival of the train. Find the distance Gilda
walks to the station.
David knew he made a mistake when he calculated that Gilda walks 123 miles to the station. Read through David's
calculations:
Using d = rt, the distance is the same, but the rate and time are different.
If Gilda misses the train, it means the time t needs 7 more minutes at a rate of 3 mph, so d = 3(t + 7).
If she gets to the station 5 minutes early it means the time t can be 5 minutes less at a rate of 4 mph, so
d=4(t - 5).
3(t + 7) = 4(t - 5)
3+ + 21 = 4t - 20
t = 41
d = rt, so d = 3(41) = 123
Find David's mistake in his calculations. In two or more complete sentences, explain his mistake. Include the correct
calculations and solutions in your answer.
