A dolphin swims 665,280 feet in 3 hours. Use the formula d = rt, where d represents distance, r represents rate, and t represents time, to answer the following questions. Show your work.

Part A: Rearrange the distance formula, d = rt, to solve for rate. (2 points)

Part B: Find the dolphin's rate in feet per hour. (3 points)

Part C: Find the dolphin's rate in miles per hour. (3 points)

Part D: Which unit, feet, or miles, makes more sense to use in this scenario, and why? (2 points)

A) to solve for r, divide both sides by t.

R = d/t

B) divide total feet swam by time:

665,280 feet / 3 hours = 221,760 feet per hour

C) 1 mile = 5,280 feet. Divide feet per hour by 5280:

221,760/5280 = 42 miles per hour

D) long distances are usually calculated in miles because it’s smaller numbers which are easier to use in calculations.

step-by-step explanation:

divide the cost of the total of sodas you bought by the cost of one soda, for example:

$24.57 divided by $1.89 is 13 which means you bought 13 sodas
