Complete question :
At 10:00 am, Han and Tyler both started running toward each other from opposite ends of a 10 mile path along a river. Han runs at a pace of 12 minutes per mile Tyler runs at a pace of 15 minutes per mile how far does Han run after a half hour
Answer:
2.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Distance between Horn and Tyler = 10 miles
Horn's pace = 12 minutes per mile
Tyler's pace = 15 minutes per mile
Horn's distance after half an hour :
Time = Half an hour = 30 minutes
Horn's speed = distance / time
Horn's speed = 1 mile / 12 minutes = 0.83333 miles per minute
Hence, Horn's distance after half an hour :
Distance = speed * time
Distance = 0.83333 miles per minute * 30 minutes
Distance = 2.5 miles
