1 mile at 12 m/h is .2 m/min
1 mile at .2 m/min (1/.2) = 5 min So the first mile took 5 minutes
To find how fast the second mile was:
You know it was 1 mile and it took 10 minutes
1/10=.1 m/min which is 6 m/h
The average speed is 6+12/2=9 m/h

Hope that helps.  Feel free to ask any questions.

Adam is working two summer jobs, making $9 per hour washing cars and $8 per hour walking dogs. Last week Adam earned a total of
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Washing cars= 4 hours

Walking dogs= 10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to start by creating equations. So one thing we know is that he makes $9 an hour washing cars(x) and $8 walking dogs(y).

$9x+$8y=$116

The second Equation is based off of the hours worked. We know that he worked 6 hours more walking the dogs than he did washing cars, so we can take x(being the washing hours) and add 6 to it to equal y (the number of dog hours).

y=x+6

Now You plug what y equals into the first equation to solve for x.

9x+8(x+6)=116     Next distribute the 8 to each term.

9x+8(x)+8(6)=116

9x+8x+48=116     Add the like terms together (9x+8x)

17x+48=116         Subtract the 48 from both sides

     -48  -48

17x=68             Now divide by 17 on both sides.

______

17    17

x=4                 Finally we can take x and plug it back in to one of the equations in order to solve for y. I'm going to choose the second equation.

y=(4)+6

y=10

You are facing North. Turn 90 degrees left. Turn 180 degrees right. Turn around to reverse your direction. Turn 45 degrees left.

North
You are facing north. 90 degrees left is west. 180 degrees is now east. Reversing your direction is the same as 180 so your now back to facing west. Turn 45 left you’re now facing south. Reverse again and you’re facing north.
