Simon runs
on a 5 mile path several times a week. Since he is just
beginning this exercise program, he runs part of the way and
walks the rest of the way. Simon's running speed is 7
mi/hr and his walking speed is 5 mi/hr.
Write an equation to
represent Simon's exercise program. The equation should be
in slope-intercept form. |
