Robert is an avid runner who as a specific route he runs each morning. He leaves his house and runs 3
miles north before stopping for a 1 minute break. After his break he runs 4 miles east before taking a 2
minute break. Next he runs 5 miles southwest back to his home. What is his average speed if the route
without the breaks takes 57 minutes to complete?

Answer 1

Answer:

he's running 4/19 miles per minute or 12.6 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

he is running 3 miles north, 4 miles east, and 5 miles southwest, a total of 12 miles

d = rt

12 = 57r

r = 12/57 or 4/19 (simplest form)

this is 4/19 miles per minute, multiply by 60 and it's about 12.6 miles per hour
