Watch it Read Itarrow_forwardIn an attempt to conserve energy (and, let’s be honest, save some cash), Bob decides to ride his bike to work every day. He starts out by riding a half mile uphill, which slows him down by 4 miles per hour. The rest of the ride is a mile downhill, which speeds him up by 5 miles per hour. After several days, he notices that when he reaches the top of the hill, he’s exactly halfway there if you measure in terms of time. How fast would Bob be riding if the trip were on level ground?arrow_forward
