Algebra.Com's Answer #842175 by greenestamps(13198)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! \n" ); document.write( "The question is not well written.... \n" ); document.write( "Since the distances are always the same, increasing the speed will decrease the time required. If the speed is increased by the ratio m:n, then the time required is DECREASED by the ratio m:n. \n" ); document.write( "The question as written is \"In what ratio is the time changed?\". With that wording, the answer could be either m:n or n:m. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
