Question

If I run about 10 miles per hour and every 20 mintues I lose .10 miles how many miles do I have in 4 hours

Answer 1

btw Its POINT ten miles and I know I spelled minutes wrong .

Answer 2

If in 20 minutes, you lose 0.10 miles.
In one hour, you lose, 60mins/20mins * 0.10 = 0.30 miles.
So in one hour, you run 10 miles but lose 0.30, in total you run only 10-0.30 = 9.7miles

In 4 hours, you run 9.7*4= 38.8 miles

Answer 3

what about .2

Answer 4

what .2? i don't see any .2 at all.

Answer 5

what if you changed .10 to .2

Answer 6

same method. If you lose .2 miles in 20 minutes.

In one hour, u lose .2 *3 = .6 miles.

In one hour, instead of running 10 miles, you actually run 9.4 miles.

In 4 hours, 9.4 *4 = 37.6 miles

Answer 7

how bout + .10

Answer 8

same method. In 20 minutes you gain 0.1 miles. In one hour u gain 0.3 miles

In one hour total, 10+0.3= 10.3miles

in 4 hours, 10.3*4 = 41.2 miles

Answer 9

how bout x .5
