Answer:

C. The cheetah runs 24.5 meters per second & D. The cheetah will run 1,470 meters in 1 minute

Step-by-step explanation:

First I did 196/8 to see how many meters the cheetah ran per second which got me 24.5 meters, so that simply gave me answer C. I then did process of elimination through the answers by taking 24.5 and multiplying it by however may seconds to see if it got the same distance that was in the answer. When I came to D. I had to do 24.5*60 (Because one minute is 60 seconds) which got that answer.
