Stu hiked a trail at an average rate of 3 miles per hour. He ran back on the same trail at an average rate of 5 miles per hour. He traveled for a total of 3 hours. Which equation can be used to find the time it took Stu to hike the trail?

3t = 5
3t = 5(3 – t)
3 + t = 5 + (3 – t)
3t + 5(3 – t) = 3

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
