Sarah the cheetah ran 100 meters at a speed of 16.8 meters per second. An olympian ran the 100-meter dash in 9.6 seconds. How much faster was Sarah the cheetah’s speed, to the nearest tenth of a meter per second? 0.9 meters per second 1.6 meters per second 6.4 meters per second 10.4 meters per second

Sara's speed was 6.4 meters per second faster

Step-by-step explanation:

(Were going to name the olympian steve)

First, we have to find how many meters per second Steve ran. To find this we must divide the number of meters he ran by the amount of time it took him to run all 100 meters.

100 ÷ 9.6 =10.41666667

Since the problem tells us to round to the nearest tenth of a second we round 10.41666667 to 10.4. So now we know how many meters per second Steve ran. Now all we have to do is subtract the number of meters per second Sarah ran, from the number of meters per second Steve ran.

Sarah- 16.8 meters per second

Steve- 10.4 meters per second

16.8-10.4= 6.4

And there you have it! Sarah ran 6.4 meters per second more than Steve. I hope this answer was accurate and helpful. I hope you have an AMAZING day!

answer: the resulting cross section is a rectangle. solution: a plane parallel to the base of a triangular prism will intersect a cross section that is the same shape as its bases. so the cross section is a triangle.
