A biker travels at an average speed of 18 km/h along a 0.30-km straight segment of a bike path. How much time ( in hours)does the biker take to travel this segment?

Sagot :

Answer:

The biker will take "0.016 hours".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Average speed,

[tex]V_{avg}[/tex] = 18 km/h

Distance,

d = 0.30 km

As we know,

⇒  [tex]V_{avg}=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]

or,

⇒  [tex]t=\frac{d}{V_{avg}}[/tex]

On substituting the values in the above formula, we get

⇒     [tex]=\frac{0.30 \ km}{18 \ km/h}[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=0.016 \ hours[/tex]
