Question

If Jaime is riding at 14 miles per hour and Cori is riding at 0.40 km per minute, how far will each of them bike in two hours? 1 mile is equivalent to 1.61 kilometers.
Use the equation d=vt.

Answer 1

Answer:

Jaime: $d = 45.08\ km$

Cori: $d = 48km$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$V_1 = 14\ miles/hour$

$V_2 = 0.40\ km/hour$

$Time\ (t)\ = 2\ hours$

Solving Jaime Distance;

$d = vt$

Substitute values for v and t

$d = 14\ miles/hour * 2\ hours$

$d = 28\ miles$

Convert to kilometer

$d = 28 * 1.61\ km$

$d = 45.08\ km$

Solving Cori Distance:

$d = vt$

Substitute values for v and t

$d = 0.40km/min * 2\ hours$

Convert hours to minute

$d = 0.40km/min * 2 * 60\ min$

$d = 0.40km * 2 * 60$

$d = 48km$
