Answer:
Linda ran at a faster pace on Monday with a speed of 6 miles/hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate or Speed = Distance/Time
On Monday, Linda ran 3.5 miles in 35 minutes.
Converting 35 minutes to hours
60 minutes = 1 hour
35 minutes = x
x = 35/60
x = 0.5833333333 hour
Rate or speed = 3.5miles/0.5833333333 hour
= 6 miles/hour
On Tuesday, she ran 3 miles in 40 minutes.
Converting 40 minutes to hours
60 minutes = 1 hour
40 minutes = x
x = 40/60
x = 0.6666666667 hour
Rate or speed = 3miles/0.6666666667 hour
= 4.5 miles/hour
Linda ran at a faster pace on Monday with a speed of 6 miles/hour
