19 yards in 2.5 minutes express each rate as a unit rate round to the nearest tenth
To express the rate as a unit rate, we need to divide the distance by the time.
In this case, the distance is 19 yards and the time is 2.5 minutes.
To find the unit rate, we divide the distance by the time:
Unit rate = Distance / Time
Unit rate = 19 yards / 2.5 minutes
Calculating this gives us:
Unit rate = 7.6 yards/minute
Therefore, the unit rate is 7.6 yards per minute (rounded to the nearest tenth).
19/2.5 = x/1
Cross multiply and solve for x.
