The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "<span>C. 600 mi./hr. "</span>
Plane flies from City A to City B in 12 minutes. The distance is 120 miles.
12 minutes is just 0.2 of 60 minutes.
= 120 miles / 0.2 hour
= 600 miles / hour
Given:
Circular racetrack with a diameter of 1/2 mile
Find: how far does a car travel in one lap around the track?
We need to find the circumference of the racetrack.
Circumference is multiplying pi to the diameter of the racetrack.
Circumference = 3.14 * 1/2 mile
Circumference = 3.14/2 mile
Circumference = 1.57 miles rounded to the nearest tenth is 1.60 miles.
