Q:

How much time will Alex need to walk to his school, which is 214miles away from his house, if he would walk with the speed of …Chapter Reference 3 3/4 mph

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:[tex]\boxed{t=0.57h}[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:In this exercise, we know the following facts:[tex]d=2.14mi \\ \\ v=3 \ 3/4 \ mph=3.75mph \\ \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ d: \ Distance \ from \ Alex's \ house \ to \ his \ school \\ \\ v: Alex's \ speed[/tex]From physics, we know that distance (d), time (t) and speed (v) are related as the following equation:[tex]v=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]Isolating t:[tex]t=\frac{d}{v} \\ \\ t=\frac{2.14}{3.75} \\ \\ \boxed{t=0.57h}[/tex]Alex would need a little more than half an hour to get the school from his house.
