Rate-of-work-word-problems/305501: Thank you in advance for your help. I have attacked this problem many different ways and still come up short. The problem is: The members of a bicycle club rode a 20-mile round trip route. On the way back, they had a tailwind and averaged 3 mph faster than on the first 10 miles of the trip. If the entire trip took them 1 1/2 hours, what was their average speed on the first half of the ride? 1 solutions Answer 218740 by Alan3354(31532)   on 2010-05-17 16:17:09 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! The members of a bicycle club rode a 20-mile round trip route. On the way back, they had a tailwind and averaged 3 mph faster than on the first 10 miles of the trip. If the entire trip took them 1 1/2 hours, what was their average speed on the first half of the ride? ------------------------------- d = distance one way = 10 miles r = rate going without tailwind d/r + d/(r+3) = 1.5 10/r + 10/(r+3) = 1.5 10(r+3) + 10r = 1.5r(r+3) Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation (work shown, graph etc) Quadratic equation (in our case ) has the following solutons: For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number. First, we need to compute the discriminant : . Discriminant d=1681 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: . Quadratic expression can be factored: Again, the answer is: 12, -1.66666666666667. Here's your graph: --------------- Ignore the negative solution r = 12 mph (1st half)
