A kayaker made a trip on a river from her campsite to a waterfall, then back to the campsite. Since she was paddling with the current, her return trip took 1 hour less than her trip there. If she traveled at an average speed of 3 mph on the way to the waterfall, and 4.5 mph on the return trip, how far is the campsite from the waterfall? Rate Time Distance To waterfalI Back to Campsite Distance= miles
