Respuesta :

Since a yard equals 3 feet, it would take him 73.1 seconds to finish the dash.

Answer:

Time taken by John to complete the dash will be 73.2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the dash is 200 yards

We will convert this length from yards to feet first.

∵ 1 yard = 3 feet

∴ 200 yards = 3×200

                     = 600 feet

Since John runs with a speed of 8.2 feet per second then we have to find the time to complete the dash.

Time = [tex]\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}[/tex]

        = [tex]\frac{600}{8.2}[/tex]

        = 73.17 seconds

        ≈ 73.2 seconds

Time taken by John to complete the dash will be 73.2 seconds.
