formula\ for\ average\ speed= \frac{distance}{time}\\\\
Hector:\\\\
v_H=\frac{8miles}{85\ minutes}\approx0,09\frac{mile}{min}\\\\
Mario:\\\\
v_M=\frac{6miles}{55minutes}=0,1\frac{miles}{min}\\\\
Mario\ has\ faster\ speed.

Since v=d/t
We can change the times from minutes to hours so that the answers will be in mph (but it isn't necessary)
Hectors speed=8/1.42=5.6mph
Marios speed=6/0.92=6.5mph
Therefore mario has the greater average speed.
Hope this helps :-)

If you place a 39-foot ladder against the top of a 23-foot building, how many feet will
Alborosie

Answer:

31.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem

a² + b² = c²

Plug in the knowns

a² + 23² = 39²

Subtract 23² from both sides

a² = 39² - 23²

a² = 1521 - 529

a² = 992

Take the square root of both sides

a = 31.496031496

Rounded

a = 31.5 ft
