So 6 hours at 4 miles per hour
4 miles per hour means 4 mieles in one hour
6 hours
distance=time times (distance pers unit of time)
distance=6 times 4=24

second day
same number of hours=6
speed=3

distance=time times (distance per units of time)
distance=6 times 3=18

so we add 1 and 2 days together
24+18=42
so he has covered 42 mles
he eed to cover 70
70=42+rest
subtract 42
28=rest

so he traveled 28 miles on third day
in 8 hours
sppeed=distance divided by time
time=8
distance=28
28/8=14/4=7/2=3 and 1/2 miles per hour=3.5 miles per hour

answer is 3.5 miles per hour

Is 7 1/8 grater or less than 7.025
aliina [53]
7 1/8 is greater than 7.025 because if you convert it into a decimal (8 * 7 = 56 + 1 = 57/8 =....) you get 7.125, which is obviously bigger (1>0)

in a marathon race (42.195 km), the winner’s time is 2 hours, 13 minutes, and 9 seconds, while the second-place time is 2 hours,
algol [13]

in a marathon race (42.195 km), the winner’s time is 2 hours, 13 minutes, and 9 seconds, while the second-place time is 2 hours, 26 minutes, and 6 seconds . The distance is 2.664 km.

D = distance of marathon = 42.195 km = 42195 m

tw = time taken by winner = 2 h 17 min = 2 (60) + 17 = 137 min = 137 (60) = 8220 sec

Vw = speed of winner

speed of winner is given as

Vw = D /tw = 42195/8220

ts = time taken by second place = 2 h 26 min 14 sec = 2 (60)(60) + (26)(60) + 14 = 8774 s

Vs = speed of second place

speed of second place is given as

Vs = D /ts = 42195/8774

distance of the second place holder from the finish line is given as

D' = Vs (ts - tw)

D' = (42195/8774 )(8774 - 8220)

D' = 2664.24 m

D'= 2.664 km

Answer:

YES

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers

- 23 and 100 are both integers

- 23 / 100 = 0.23 which is not a continious decimal
