The distance traveled (in meters) by an insect is modeled by the equation d = 0.5t where d is the distance
traveled in meters and t is the time in minutes. find the distance traveled in 27.9 minutes.
a. 55.8 meters
b. none of these
c. 1.395 meters
d. 13.95 meters

13.95 choice D

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because if we substitute t with 27.9, you would get 27.9 times 0.5, you would get 13.95.

14 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = rate times time.

In this case, distance = (0.5 meters/minute)(27.9 minutes) = 13.95 meters, or approx. 14 meters.

d

step-by-step explanation:

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
