Ricky can ride 17 km on his bike in the same length of time ha can walk 9 km. if his riding speed is 4 kph faster than his walking speed how fast does he walk

Distance=speed times time
if they take the same time, we cal the time , t

b=bike speed
w=walking speed

bikedistnace=17=bt
walkdistance=9=wt

b is 4 more than w
b=4+w

we have
17=bt
9=wt
b=4w

ok so
multiply first equation by 9 and 2nd by 17

153=9bt
153=17wt
set equal
9bt=17wt
divide both sides by t
9b=17w
sub b=4+w for b
9(4+w)=17w
distribute
36+9w=17w
minus 9w both sides
36=8w
divide both sides by 8
4.5=w

he walks 4.5kph
