Gus likes to walk through a local park. Gus walked 11 miles in 4 hours. If he walked the same distance every hour, how far did he walk in one hour in miles? In feet and miles? In feet?

He walked 2.75 miles in one hour         (distance in miles)

He walked 2 miles 3960 feet  in one hour           (distance in feet and miles)

He walked 14520 feet  in one hour                  (distance in feet)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using proportion to solve;

Let x be the distance(in mile) walked in one hour

11 miles = 4 hours

  x         = 1 hour

cross-multiply

4×x = 11

4x = 11

Divide both-side of the equation by 4

4x/4 = 11/4

At the right-hand side of the equation, 4 will cancel-out 4 leaving us with just x

x =2.75 miles

He walked 2.75 miles in one hour

Converting it to feet and miles

1 mile = 5280 feet

0.75 mile  =  y

y = 0.75×5280

   =3960 feet

he walked 2 miles 3960 feet  in one hour

To convert  it to feet

1 mile = 5280 feet

2.75 miles  = x

x = 2.75×5280

x = 14520 feet

he walked 14520 feet  in one hour

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.

hope it

yep b and c r the correct got it! : )
