9. Every school day, Lucas bikes to school, 12 miles away at 8 miles per hour. Today, Lucas was thinking about planning his sister’s party in the evening, and, distracted, travelled the first four mile at only 6 miles per hour. At what speed must he travel the last eight miles to reach school in time?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question may be answered easily by first determining how far we would ride the bike in 1 hour. Riding the bike 12 mph (miles per hour) for one hour, we would ride the bike 12 miles.

 

Since 20 minutes is 1/3 of a hour, divide 12 by 3 to find out how far the biker traveled in 1/3 of the time:4 miles. that is the answer and the steps!!
