<PRE><B>Question 354442</B>
 Tina rides her bike 15m up a hill and then 15m. down the same hill. This complete trip takes 2 hours. If her downhill speed is 20m faster than her uphill speed, how fast does she ride uphill? 
---------
I&#39;ll assume you mean 20 km/hr faster, and that the distances are km, not meters.
----------
d = rt (r = uphill rate)
t = d/r
2 hr = 15/r + 15/(r+20)
2*r*(r+20) = 15(r+20) + 15r
2r^2 + 40r = 15r+300 + 15r
2r^2 + 10r - 300 = 0
r^2 + 5r - 150 = 0
(r + 15)(r - 10) = 0
r = 10 km/hr uphill, 30 km/hr downhill
