Answer:
Comparing Nathan's rate for the two days, Nathan's speed(rate)/was faster today than yesterday
Step-by-step explanation:
Yesterday Nathan rode his bike 39 kilometers in 3 hours.
Today Nathan rode his bike 8 kilometers in 30 minutes. Compare his rates for those two days. Show your work.
Speed /rate =>Distance(km)/ Time(hr)
For yesterday
Speed = 39km/3 hour
Speed = 13 km/hr
For Today
Convert time in minutes to hour
60 minutes = 1 hour
30 minutes = x hour
= 30/60
= 0.5 hour
Speed=> 8km/ 0.5 hour
=16 km/hr
Comparing Nathan's rate for the two days, Nathan's speed(rate)/was faster today than yesterday
