Atraveler is walking on a moving walkway in an airport. the traveler must walk back on the walkway to get a bag he forgot. the traveler's ground speed is 1 ft/s against the walkway and 7 ft/s divided by s with the walkway. what is the traveler's speed off the walkway? what is the speed of the moving walkway?

let t = traveler's normal walking speed
let w = walkway speed

Write an equation for each scenario
t - w = 1

t + w = 7

 t=1+w

(1+w)+w=7

1+2w=7

w=3 ft/s walkway speed

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.

answer is 8 r5
