To find the distance a cheetah can cover in 15 seconds while traveling at an average speed of 20 meters per second, you can use the formula for distance:
\[
\text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time}
\]
Substituting the given values into the formula:
\[
\text{Distance} = 20 \, \text{meters/second} \times 15 \, \text{seconds}
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
\text{Distance} = 300 \, \text{meters}
\]
Therefore, a cheetah can cover 300 meters in 15 seconds at its average speed of 20 meters per second.
\[
\text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time}
\]
Substituting the given values into the formula:
\[
\text{Distance} = 20 \, \text{meters/second} \times 15 \, \text{seconds}
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
\text{Distance} = 300 \, \text{meters}
\]
Therefore, a cheetah can cover 300 meters in 15 seconds at its average speed of 20 meters per second.
