scribe

today we started class with a worksheet

topher and sully decided to go cut down a Christman tree together, so they ventured out into the snowy woods. after wandering for close to three hours, the two found the perfect tree but also decided that they were lost. luckily Sully found a map nailed to a tree which showed that they were four miles due north of a point perfectly straight road. six miles east of that point was the park that the two called home. if Topher and Sully can walk and drag the tree at the rate of two miles per hour through the snow, and three miles per hour on the road, what is the minimum amount of time that they would need to get home?








then we did examples on the board












homework 5.5
linger your next
