4(2n - 9) = 10n - 8

8n - 36 = 10n - 8

8n - 8n - 36 = 10n - 8n - 8

-36 = 2n - 8

-36 + 8 = 2n - 8 + 8

-28 = 2n

-28/2 = 2n/2

-14 = n

Ron walks 0.5 mile on a track in 10 minutes. Stevie walks 0.25 mile on the track in 6 minutes find the unit rate for each walker
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Ron's speed = 3 miles/hour

Stevie's speed = 2.5 miles/hour

On comparing we see Ron is walking faster than Stevie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ron takes 10 minutes to walk on a track to cover a distance of 0.5 miles

Stevie takes 6 minutes to walk on a track to cover a distance of 0.25 miles

To find their unit rates in mile per hour and choose the faster one.

Solution:

Unit rate in miles per hour signifies their speeds. Thus, we will find out their speeds.

Ron:

Distance= 0.5 miles

Time = 10 minutes = 10\ min\times \frac{1\ hr}{60\ min}=\frac{1}{6} hours

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{0.5}{\frac{1}{6}}=0.5\times6=3\ miles/hour

Stevie

Distance = 0.25 miles

Time = 6 minutes = 6\ min\times \frac{1\ hr}{60\ min}=\frac{1}{10} hours

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{0.25}{\frac{1}{10}}=0.25\times10=2.5\ miles/hour

Thus, we have

Ron's speed = 3 miles/hour

Stevie's speed = 2.5 miles/hour

On comparing we see Ron is walking faster than Stevie.
