Question

Colorado State Bend Park has 12.3 miles of

trails. The average hiker travels at a pace
slightly faster than 1.7 miles per hour. Which
equation could be used to find the distance d
from the end of the path after n hours?
F d > 12.3 + 17n
Gd < 12.3 + 1.7n
Hd < 12.3 - 1.7n
Jd > 12.3 - 1.7n

Answer 1

Hd

Explanation:

Slightly faster automatically means greater than because it tells you that it it more that the given amount :)

The answer is H and not G because you are subrtracting from the total amount of the walk not adding more distance.

Hope that helps!!!
