Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So you know that distance = rate x time.
9 miles in 1.5 hours
In this case, you know the time (1.5 hours) and the distance (9 miles)
(You can ignore the rest of the chart since the question is just about running.)
What's missing is the rate (r) at which you ran. (Think of it as speed...)
If r x t = d, that means that d ÷ t = r
So plug in what you have: 9 ÷ 1.5 = your rate. And 9 ÷ 1.5 is...
6
So you ran 6 miles per hour. And you can check it: if you went 6 miles in one hour, you could go another 3 miles in another half an hour. That would be 9 miles in 1.5 hours. Check!
