Answer 2

Answer : The runners unit rate is, 0.087 miles/min

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that a runner runs 8 miles in 92 minutes. Now we have to determine the unit rate of runners.

As, the distance covered by runner in 92 minutes = 8 miles

So, the distance covered by runner in 1 minutes =
`\frac{8\text{ miles}}{92\text{ minutes}}`

= 0.087 miles/min

Thus, the runners unit rate is, 0.087 miles/min
