it takes 35 minutes for mr morrison to drive 25 miles to work. rounded to the nearest mile per hour, what is the speed in miles per hour?

D = RT (Distance = Rate x Time)

R = D/T

35 min = .58 hour (35/60)
D = 25 mi, T = .58 h
R = 25/.58 = 43.10 mph

to nearest mph = 43 mph

25/35 = x/60

35x = 1500
x = 42.85 = 43

To find the speed in miles per hour, we need to divide the distance traveled by the time taken. In this case, Mr. Morrison traveled 25 miles in 35 minutes.

Step 1: Convert minutes to hours
Since we need the speed in miles per hour, we need to ensure that the time is in hours. To convert minutes to hours, we divide the number of minutes by 60 (since there are 60 minutes in an hour).
35 minutes ÷ 60 = 0.5833 hours (rounded to four decimal places)

Step 2: Divide distance by time
Now, we can find the speed by dividing the distance traveled (25 miles) by the time taken in hours (0.5833 hours).
Speed = Distance ÷ Time
Speed = 25 miles ÷ 0.5833 hours

Step 3: Calculate the rounded answer
To round the answer to the nearest mile per hour, we can round the division result to the nearest whole number.
Speed = 42.8609 miles per hour

Since we need to round to the nearest mile per hour:
Speed = 43 miles per hour (rounded to the nearest whole number)

Therefore, rounding to the nearest mile per hour, Mr. Morrison's speed is approximately 43 miles per hour.
