Question 234574
We need to find the time for the up and down trip.

We use the following equation twice to find the time going up and down: d/r = t


Going Up:

9 = (r + 3)t

9/(r + 3) = t

Going Down:

11 = (r - 3)t

11/(r - 3) = t


I will set up the equation and you can finish.


(r + 3)(9/(r + 3) = (r - 3)(11/(r - 3)

Can you finish now?
