Answer:

Kathy would take 7.56 seconds to run each of the 8-time segments of the 400-meter dash.

Explanation:

Kathy ran the 400-meter dash in 60.48 seconds, so if she now divided that time into 8 equal time segments we have:


t = 60.48 s

By dividing the above equation into 8:


t = (60.48 s)/(8) = 7.56 s

Hence, she would take 7.56 seconds to run each of the 8-time segments of the 400-meter dash.

I hope it helps you!
