Question

In 1988,
Anthony Thornton walked backward
around Minneapolis, Minnesota,
for 24.46 hours. If his average speed
was 3.9 miles per hour, about how
many miles did he cover walking
backward?

Answer 1

Answer: 95.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken for walk is 24.46 hours. Average speed for walk= 3.9 miles per hour

Recall that Distance = (Average Speed x Time taken)

So Distance = 3.9 miles per hour x 24.49 hours = 95.4 miles

Thus, Anthony covered 95.4 miles walking

backward from Minneapolis Minnesota

Answer 2

Answer:

95.394 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Speed of movement, V = 3.9 mph

Time taken, t = 24.46 hours

Speed, V = Distance, D/time, t

Distance, D = 3.9 × 24.46

= 95.394 miles.
