10
miles in
75
minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would she run in

minutes?
Answer provided by our tutors
Let
d1 = 10 mi
t1 = 75 min
d2 = ?
t2 = 69 min
Since the rate is distance/time and the rate is constant we have:
d1/t1 = d2/t2
10/75 = d2/69

........
d2 = 9.2 mi
Maria would run 9.2 miles in 69 minutes.
