Question

From your house, Joe's mechanic shop is 25 miles away. At what rate must you travel to

go 25 miles to make your appointment in 0.27 hours?

Answer 1

rate = 92.6 miles/hours

Explanation:

Here rate means speed

formula for speed = distance/time

since distance here is 25 miles

and time taken is 0.27 hours

thus,

speed = distance to be traveled/time in which this distance is covered

speed = 25 miles/ 0.27 hours = 92.6 miles/hours

thus, rate should be 92.6 miles/hours to make the appointment in time.
