Please solve this for 15 points

passengers/second

Step-by-step explanation:

Every 5/6 of a minute is actually every 50 seconds.

So, to find the number of passengers per second, we just divide , which is which can be simplified to as a fraction or 0.333 as a decimal.

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,

54 km / hours

step-by-step explanation:

we need to convert seconds to hours

60 seconds = 1 minutes

60 minutes = 1hour

15 m         60 second   60 minutes

  * *         = 54000 meters/ hour

second     1 minute             1 hour

now we need to convert meters to km

1000 m = 1 km

54000 m       1 km

*   = 54 km / hours

hour               1000m
