Your friend's pedometer shows that he took 17000 steps in 2.50 h during a hike. how would the answer change if the time were given as 2.5 h instead of 2.50 h? express your answer in steps per hour.

For this case we have the following variables:

x: number of steps

t: total time

We then have the following relationship:

For t = 2.50 we have:

For t = 2.5 we have:

Note: We observe that the result is the same because the zero after the last decimal place is not significant.

if the time was given as 2.5 h instead of 2.50 h, the answer is the same:

a) 0.25x times 3. (could be wrong on equation.)

b) 2.25 pound of dark chocolate. (can i eat all the chocolate? plz? anyway, again, could be wrong, but i hope im right. all the chocolate together should be 5.25 pounds)

have a good day!
