hello
Which expression is true? A. 50 kilometers/hour > 139 centimeters/second B. 50 kilometers/hour < 139 centimeters/second C. 50 kilometers/hour = 139 centimeters/second D. cannot be determined
Any ideas?
Think!
Telling someone to "think!" is not called teaching...
Think for some conversion and on that line!
@skullpatrol, sorry.
lol @skullpatrol
I still don't get it
How many hours = how many seconds?? first convertt into minutes
Your objective is to compare 50 kilometers/hour with 139 centimeters/second and choose one of the statements <, =, or >
To compare speeds they must be in the same units, right?
thanks
$$\huge 50 \frac{kilometers}{hour}$$ $$\huge 139 \frac{centimeters}{second}$$
1 hour = 3600 seconds, kilo = 10^3, centi = 10^-2
$$\huge 50 \frac{10^3meters}{3600 seconds}$$ $$\huge 139 \frac{10^{-2}meters}{second}$$
^ are u getting it @keketooskiny or u just want the answer
im getting it
cool!
$$\huge \frac{50*10^3}{3600} \frac{meters}{second}$$ $$\huge 139*10^{-2} \frac{meters}{second}$$
