Question

A snail can crawl at a rate of 6 cm in 0.75 minutes. Which representation shows the distance a snail can travel at this rate?

Answer 1

Answer: 0.00133m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

distance crawled by the snail = 6cm = 0.06m

Time taken = 0.75minutes = 0.75*60

Time taken = 45secs

Required

constant rate of change of the snail's crawl (speed)

Speed of the snail = distance/time;

Speed of the snail = 0.06/45

Speed of the snail = 0.00133m/s

Hence the constant rate of change of the snail's crawl in m/s is 0.00133m/s
