Math Problem Statement
You ride your bike to campus a distance of 55 miles and return home on the same route. Going to campus, you ride mostly downhill and average 99 miles per hour faster than on your return trip home. If the round trip takesnbsp one hour and nbsp one hour and 1010 minuteslong dash—that is, seven sixths 7 6 hourslong dash—what is your average velocity on the return trip? Use the formula Time traveled equals StartFraction Distance traveled Over Average velocity EndFractionTime traveled= Distance traveled Average velocity. Question content area bottom Part 1 The average rate on the return trip is enter your response here miles per hour.
