Sagot :

The number of miles each person runs after an hour is;

Michael Anthony = 9 miles

Jocelyn = 8 miles

The person that runs the fastest is;

Michael Anthony with a speed of 0.15 miles per minute.

Michael-Anthony runs 3 miles in 20 minutes

Now formula for speed is;

Speed = distance/time

Thus;

Speed of Michael Anthony = 3/20 miles per minute = 0.15 miles per minute

Thus, in 1 hour = 60 minutes,

Distance covered = 3/20 × 60

Distance covered = 9 miles

Jocelyn runs 4 miles in 30 minutes

Speed of Jocelyn = 4/30 = 0.133 miles per minute

Distance covered by Jocelyn in 1 hour = 60 minutes is; 0.133 × 60 = 8 miles
