If the average speed of a garden snail is 0.025 miles per hour and one inch is approximately 2.54 centimeters, how many minutes would it take a garden snail to travel one meter? round the answer to the nearest tenth.
a) 1.4 minutes
b) 1.5 minutes
c) 2.1 minutes
d) 2.6 minutes

B

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert speed in miles per hour to inches per second.

Use

1 mile = 63,360 inches

1 hour = 3,600 seconds

Then

Now, use the fact that

1 inch = 2.54 cm, so

Finally,

Distance = 1 m = 100 cm

Speed = 1.1176 cm/sec

Time = ? sec

Hence,

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2

=240

=48

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer would be:

220 centimeters

to get this you can use the pythagorean theorem
