Question

Elena bikes 20 minutes each day for exercise. Write an equation to describe the relationship between her distance in miles, D, and her biking speed, in miles per hour, when she bikes: at a constant speed of 13 miles per hour for the entire 20 minutes

Answer 1

Answer:

D= 3.9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

speed v= 13 miles per hour

time taken t= 20min to hour 0.3 hours

the distance D

We know that the relationship between speed, time, and distance

speed=distance/time

13=D/0.3

(the expression above describes the relationship between  distance, speed, and time)

making D subject of formula we have

D= 0.3*13

D= 3.9 miles

hence the distance is 3.9miles
