site directions. Randy walked at a rate of 3.6 km/h and Amy walked at a rate of 4.2 km/h. How far apart were they after 10 min? PLS HELP I ALSO NEED THE WORK!!

Answer 1

0.1 km apart

Explanation:

10 mins is 10/60 of an hour

For Randy: 3.6 * 10/60 = 0.6

For Amy: 4.2 * 10/60 = 0.7

0.7 - 0.6 = 0.1

Answer 2

DISTANCE=RATE*TIME. THEREFORE

X=3.6*1/6+4.2*1/6 (1/6 HOUR=10 MIN)

X=.6+.7

X=1.3 KM IS HOW FAR THEY WIL BE APART AFTER 10 MINUTES.
