Solution:

we are given that

Nathan takes 42 minutes to thread a distance of 4.5 miles on a threadmill.

we have been asked to find the average distance covered in one minute.

Using the  concept of unity we can write

Since Nathan takes 42 minutes to cover a distance of 4.5 miles.

So in 1 minute Nathan will cover a distance of [tex]=\frac{4.5}{42} =1.07142miles[/tex]

Hence avearge distance covered in one minute is 1.1 miles.

Answer:

0.107

Step-by-step explanation:

If nathan takes 42 mintues to thread a distance of 4.5 miles we must determine the spead that Nathan travels:

Speed is defined as the distance per time. Let v equal the average distance per minute, d is distance and t is time:

[tex]v=d/t[/tex]

Therefore the average distance cover per one minute is:

[tex]v=4.5/42=0.107[/tex]

Nathan covers 0.107 miles per one minute.
