Jay runs the 200 meter dash for the school track team. His personal record is 25 seconds. How fast did Jay have to run to set this time?

Question

Please show me the work

Answer 1

How fast means you are looking for speed or in this case velocity.

 

velocity is distance divided by time 

 

200 meters divided by 25 seconds 

 

now the only remaining question is what units the answer needs to be given in.
