meters
According to the table, Bolt can run 10.4 meters in 1 second. To find out how far he could run in 10 seconds, we multiply his speed by the number of seconds:
10.4 meters/second * 10 seconds = 104 meters
Therefore, Bolt could run 104 meters in 10 seconds.

A doctor can type 30 words per minute as a patient is describing his symptoms. Transcription software can type 150 words per minute. If the patient talks for 2 minutes, what is the difference in the number of words the doctor can type compared to the transcription software?
(1 point)
words
According to the table:
- The doctor can type 30 words per minute.
- The transcription software can type 150 words per minute.
Since the patient talks for 2 minutes, we need to calculate the total number of words typed by each:
- Doctor: 30 words/minute * 2 minutes = 60 words
- Transcription Software: 150 words/minute * 2 minutes = 300 words
The difference in the number of words the doctor can type compared to the transcription software is:
300 words (transcription software) - 60 words (doctor) = 240 words
Therefore, the difference is 240 words.
