Jeffrey wants to ride his bike 950meters north to a grocery store. He is supposed to meet a friend at the store in 15 minutes. If he rides at a constant velocity of 250metersperminute to the north, how long will it take Jeffrey to reach the store?

Respuesta :

Jeffrey is riding his bike at a velocity of 250 meters per minute to the north. To find out how long it will take him to reach the store, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Velocity}} \]

In this case:

- Distance (\(\text{D}\)) is 950 meters,

- Velocity (\(\text{V}\)) is 250 meters per minute.

\[ \text{Time} = \frac{950}{250} = 3.8 \text{ minutes} \]

So, it will take Jeffrey 3.8 minutes to reach the grocery store.
