A:
Answer:It will take you 0.24 hour to ride to your grandparents’ homeIt will take you 14 minutes to ride to your grandparents’ homeStep-by-step explanation:- Your average speed is 15 miles per hour- The distance to grandmother home is 3.67 miles- You need to know how long it will take you to do that∵ Distance = speed × time∵ Distance = 3.67 miles∵ Speed = 15 miles per hour- Substitute these values in the rule above∴ 3.67 = 15 × time- Divide both sides by 15 to find the time∴ Time = 0.24 hour* It will take you 0.24 hour to ride to your grandparents’ home- You need to convert the time from hour to minutes∵ 1 hour = 60 minutes∵ Time = 0.24 hour∴ Time = 0.24 × 60 = 14.4 ∴ Time ≅ 14 minutes* It will take you 14 minutes to ride to your grandparents’ home
