The miles from the starting line does which jackie's horse catch up to Anabel's is 1.4 miles.
<h3>What is defined as the rate?</h3>
- The unit rate is distinct from the rate, which compares a certain number of units of first quantity to one unit of a second quantity.
- To put it another way, the second quantity with in comparison has always been 1.
- One minute, for example, has 60 seconds. As a result, we can convey that as 60 seconds per minute as a unit rate.
Let the distance covered by Jackie's horse be 'd'.
Let the time taken be 't'.
Distance = time * rate
Jackie's horse travelled distance; d = 28t .....eq1
Anabel's horse travelled the distance d = 24t + 1/5. .....eq2
Equating equation 1 and 2.
28t = 24t + 1/5
Simplifying.
4t = 1/5
t = 1/20 hour.
The same distance can be covered in 1/20 hour ;
Put the value of t in eq 1.
d = 28t
d = 28(1/20)
d = 12/5 miles
d = 1.4 miles
Thus, the miles from the starting line does which jackie's horse catch up to Anabel's is 1.4 miles.
