Answer:
Melissa walked at a rate of 1.0 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
Melissa walked at a rate of 88 feet per minute .
As
[tex]1\ minutes = \frac{1}{60}\ hour[/tex]
[tex]1\ feet = \frac{1}{5280}\ hour[/tex]
Now convert 88 feet per minutes into miles per hour.
[tex]\frac{88\ feet}{minutes}= \frac{88\times \frac{1}{5280}}{\frac{1}{60}}\ miles\ per\ hour[/tex]
[tex]\frac{88\ feet}{minutes}= \frac{\frac{88}{5280}}{\frac{1}{60}}\ miles\ per\ hour[/tex]
[tex]\frac{88\ feet}{minutes}= \frac{0.017}{0.017}\ (Approx)\ miles\ per\ hour[/tex]
[tex]\frac{88\ feet}{minutes}= 1.0\ miles\ per\ hour[/tex]
Therefore the Melissa walked at a rate of 1.0 miles per hour.
