Answer:

196 inches

1372 inches

Explanation:

d = Distance traveled = 980 inches

t = Time taken = 5 minutes

Speed is given by

s=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{980}{5}\\\Rightarrow s=196\ \text{inches/minute}

Now t = 1 minute

Distance is given by

d=st\\\Rightarrow d=196\times 1\\\Rightarrow d=196\ \text{inches}

The ant travels 196 inches in 1 minute.

Now t = 7 minutes

d=st\\\Rightarrow d=196\times 7\\\Rightarrow d=1372\ \text{inches}

The distance traveled by the ant in 7 minutes is 1372 inches.

Discuss the topic with your classmates and include their opinions.

Include paraphrased text from authoritative sources.
