LeBron can run down the court 9 m/s. How Long does it take him to run the full length of the 27m court

Question

I need help

Answer 1

Marquis,

 

Remember that distance = rate times time.

 

LeBron (who?) has a rate of 9 m/s and runs a distance of 27 m, so you get the equation:

 

27 = 9 t, where t is time (I hope you know algebra).

 

Divide both sides by 9, and you get the time: t = 3 seconds.
