Paul took 42 mile bicycle trip. he bicycle 1 1/2 hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon what is his average speed in miles per hour

Paul's average speed for his bicycle trip is 12 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Paul rode a total of 42 miles, we need to add up the total time it took him to complete all 42 miles.  Since her rode 1.5 hours in the morning and another 2 hours in the afternoon, he rode a total of 3.5 hours.  Speed is calculated by dividing distance by time.  Since his total distance is 42 and his total time is 3.5, we divide 42 by 3.5 to get 12.  Since our calculations included miles and hours, then our final answer would be 12 miles per hour.  

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 -12x + 36 + y^2 = 36

x^2 + y^2 = 12x

r^2 = 12rcos(theta)

r = 12 cos(theta)
