Part 2: 1.32 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Histrionicus

The correct speed of Mariah walks faster than Bobby, in miles per hour - 1 mile per hour.

Shaun travel in 25 minutes in the given case, when rounded to the nearest  hundredth - 7.92 miles.

  • Part 1.

Given:

speed of Mariah = 6 miles per hour

speed of Bobby = 4, 400 yards per half hour

= 8800 yards per hour

1 mile = 1760 yards

Solution:

To find out the speed difference of both Mariah and Bobby, we need to convert speeds in the same units that is mile:

=> speed of bobby = [tex]\frac{8800}{1760}[/tex]

=> speed of bobby = 5 miles per hour

as it is given 1 mile = 1760 yards

=> Now, the speed difference between Mariah and Bobby is

= 6 - 5

= 1 mile per hour.

Thus, Mariah walks faster than Bobby, in miles per hour - 1 mile per hour.

  • Part 2:

Given:

Speed of Shaun =  19 miles per hour

distance traveled in 25 minutes = ?

Solution:

To find out the traveled distance by Shaun in 25 minutes we need to find the speed per minute:

1 hour = 60 minutes

So as given, 19 miles per 60 minutes

then speed per minute = [tex]\frac{19}{60}[/tex]

= 0.316

then traveled in 25 minutes-

=> [tex]0.316*25[/tex]

=> = 7.92

Thus, Shaun travel in 25 minutes in the given case, when rounded to the nearest  hundredth - 7.92 miles.
