A cyclist ride his bike at a rate of 9 mph what is the rate in feet per second how many feet will the cyclist travel and 10 seconds and your computation use the fact that 1 Mile is equal to 5280 feet. Don’t round your answer

Respuesta :

1 hour = 3600 seconds

1 mile - 5,280 feet

Find the total feet:

9 miles x 5,280 feet =47,520 total feet

Divide total feet by 3600 seconds:


47,520 / 3600 = 13.2 feet per second.


Multiply feet per second by 10 seconds:


13.2 x 10 = 132 feet in 10 seconds.
