Question

10. You are riding your mountain bike home from the park. The distance from the park

to your house is 8 miles. You have already traveled 3 miles. If you are traveling at
0.25 mile per minute, how many more minutes until you reach home? Write and
solve an equation to find the number of minutes it will take to reach your house.

Answer 1

8-3 = 5 miles left

Time = distance / speed

Time = 5 miles / 0.25 miles per minute

Time = 20 minutes.
