The meridional circumference — Earth is only 24,860 miles (40,008 km) around. This shape, caused by the flattening at the poles, is called an oblate spheroid.
Hmm. Try counting the side of the shape and add the sides. Using the sides as numbers you may be able to solve the problem.
Answer:
26 2/3 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
time = distance/speed
speed = distance/time
Use the first of these relations to find Aidan's time getting to school:
time = 16 mi/(40 mi/h) = 16/40 h = 0.4 h
Then the time Aidan takes to get home is 0.6 hours, and his average speed for that trip home is ...
speed = 16 mi/(0.6 h) = 26 2/3 mi/h
Answer:
