Answer:
B) 20.6 mi/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we need to first convert 40 meters to mile, then convert 4.35 seconds to hour, then solve by proportion.
converting 40 meters to mile;
1 mile = 1609.344 meter
x = 40 meters
1609.344x = 40
x = 40/1609.344
x =0.02485 mile
Then converting seconds to hour
1 hour = 3600 seconds
y = 4.35 seconds
3600 y = 4.35
y=4.35/3600
y =0.00121 hour
Using proportion to solve the question
Let n be the number he runs miles per hour
0.02485 mile = 0.00121 hour
n = 1 hour
cross-multiply
0.00121 n = 0.02485
Divide both-side by 0.00121
0.00121 n/0.00121 = 0.02485/0.00121
n ≈ 20.6 mile/hour
Therefore, he is running 20.6 mi/hr
Ok so first you would create a proportion.
8/x=4/1. Next you cross multiply and divide,
1 • 8÷4=x. Ratios are fractions with the first number being the numerator and the second being the denominator. If you think of it this way, you just find an equivalent fraction. Your answer would be 8:2 because in your proportion x=2.
Answer:
your answer is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes because when your multiply every thing together you’ll have 9/15 miles
