Average speed up and down a hill 2008-03-09
From Judith:
An old broken-down ar has to travel a two miles route, up and down a hill. Because it is so old, the car travels the first mile - the ascent - at an average speed of fifteen miles per hour. How fast must it cover the second mile - the decent - to achieve an average speed of thirty miles per hours? (There is a missing variable, but what is it?)
