The cheetah traveled 1.75 times faster for the first 8 minutes than it did for the second 8 minutes. Was the distance traveled during the first 8 minutes 1.75 times greater than the distance traveled during the second 8 minutes? Show the calculation to justify your answer.

Answer:

yes, distance travel in first 8 minute is 1.75 time higher than second 8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

speed in first 8 minute is 1.75 faster than 2nd 8 minutes.

from the above information we can say that time remain same in both situation and we know that speed is given as

speed = distance / time

since time remain same in both case. Therefore speed is directly proportional distance having time as constant

As speed is 1.75 times higher in first 8 minutes than second 8 minutes therefore distance also behave in the same way i.e distance travel in first 8 minute is 1.75 time higher than second 8 minutes
