A cyclist rides his bike at a rate of 15 miles per hour. what is this rate in miles per minute? how many miles will the cyclist travel in 20 minutes? do not round your answers.

15 miles/hour = 0.25 miles/minute

The cyclist would have traveled 5 miles in 20 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

15 miles per hour is written as

15 miles/hour

To convert 15 miles/hour to miles/minute

From 1 hour = 60 minutes

∴ 15 miles/hour = 15 miles/ 60 minutes

= (15/60) miles/minute

= 0.25 miles/minute

To calculate how many miles the cyclist will travel in 20 minutes

That is, Time, t = 20 minutes

Velocity, v = 15 miles/hour = 0.25 miles/minute

Distance, s = ??

From,

∴ ×

×

Hence, The cyclist would have traveled 5 miles in 20 minutes.

452,489 to the nearest thousand is 452,000

this is the formula: v = the value of investment at the end of the time period

p = the principal amount (the initial amount invested)

r = the annual interest rate

n = the annual frequency of compounding (how many times a year interest is added)

t = the number of years the money is invested

^ means raise to the power of
