To meet her goal, Noelle must run more than Response area hours the rest of the month.
To meet her goal, Noelle must run more than 8 hours the rest of the month.
To meet her goal, Noelle must run more than 8 hours the rest of the month.
To find out how many more hours Noelle must run to meet her goal, we can use the formula of distance = speed * time.
Since Noelle has already run 10 miles in total and her average speed is 5 miles per hour, we can subtract the distance she has already run from her goal distance. So, the remaining distance she needs to run is 50 - 10 = 40 miles.
Using the formula, we can now find the number of hours she needs to run. Rearranging the formula, we have time = distance / speed. Substituting the values, we get time = 40 miles / 5 miles per hour.
Calculating this, we find that Noelle needs to run 8 hours for the rest of the month to meet her goal of running more than 50 miles.
