Damon skateboards from his house to school 4 miles away. It takes him 20 minutes to get to school. How many minutes will it take Damon to skateboard to his friend Stefan's house, which is 2 1/2 miles from school, if he travels at the same rate that he did from his house to school.

about 12 1/2 minutes

each mile he went to school took him 5 minutes and if his friend's house is 2 1/2 miles away then 2.5x5= 12.5

Work Shown:

20 min = 20/60 = 1/3 of an hour

distance = rate*time

d = r*t

4 mi = (x mph)*(1/3 hr)

4 = x*(1/3)

4*3 = x

x = 12 mph

Damon's speed is 12 mph

Now calculate the time it takes go travel to his friends house.

d = r*t

2.5 = 12*t

t = (2.5)/12

t = 25/120

t = (5*5)/(5*24)

t = 5/24

He takes 5/24 of an hour to go from school to Stefan's house.

Multiply by 60 to convert to minutes

(5/24)*60 = 12.5 minutes

i can you with this question sweetie!

step-by-step explanation:

a28=58

step-by-step explanation:

a1=a1+(n-1)d

a28= 4+ (28-1)2

a28=4+(27)(2)

a28=4+54

a28=58
