A backpacking club can average 2 miles per hour. At that rate, how long will it take for a hike of 8 miles?

It takes 3.5 hours to do the hike.

Step-by-step explanation:

since the average rate = the total distance / the total time or

v = d/t, where v = the rate, d= distance, t = time

t = d/v

v = 2 1/2 miles per hour = 2.5 miles per hour

d = 8 3/4 miles = 8.75 miles

t = 8.75/2.5

t = 3.5 hours

it takes 3.5 hours to do the hike.

location: point 0

step-by-step explanation:

well, -8 to 10 on a number line is 18 spaces.

1/9 of 18 is 2.

so, 4/9 of 18 must be 8.

8 spaces from -8 (a) is 0.

so, 4/9 of the way from -8 to 10 is 0!
