Afalcon flies 800,000 meters in 4 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.

part b: find the falcon's rate in meters per hour.

part c: find the falcon's rate in kilometers per hour.

part d: which unit, meters, or kilometers, makes more sense to use in this scenario, and why?

Part A)

Part B)

Part C)

Part D) The kilometer unit makes more sense because it is simpler to use a smaller number than using a six figure unit to measure speed or rate

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Rearrange the distance formula, d = rt, to solve for rate

we have

where

d >  represents distance

r > represents rate

t > represents time

Solve for rate r

That means > Isolate the variable r

Divide both sides by t

Simplify

Rewrite

Part B) Find the falcon's rate in meters per hour.

we know that

The rate is equal to

we have

substitute

Part C) Find the falcon's rate in kilometers per hour

we know that

The rate is equal to

we have

Remember that

Convert meters to kilometers

substitute the values in the equation

Part D) Which unit, meters, or kilometers, makes more sense to use in this scenario, and why?

The kilometer unit makes more sense because it is simpler to use a smaller number than using a six figure unit to measure speed or rate

step-by-step explanation:

ask goog great chance of finding the solution there

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.
