Question 2 - 40 • An ostrich can run 10 km in 15 minutes. What is its speed in kilometers / hour?

Answer 2 – 40 • An ostrich can run 10 km in 15 minutes. What is its speed in kilometers / hour? • 10 km x 4 = 40 km/h

Question 2 - 50 • It took Jacob 6 hours to drive from his home to school at a speed of 60 mph. If he only has 4 hours to return to is home, what should his speed be?

Answer 2 – 50 • In order to find out how fast he should go, I need to know the distance. • d=sx t d = 60 m/h x 6 h d = 360 miles • I know the distance to home is 360 miles and time is 2 hours. I use the speed equation. • s=d/ t s = 360 m / 4 hours s = 90 m/h
