A snowboarder traveled at a speed of 12 meters per second for 15 seconds. How far did the snowboarder travel?

Question

18 meters
27 meters
180 meters
270 meters

Answer 1

To find the distance traveled by the snowboarder, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time} \]

Given:

• Speed = 12 meters per second
• Time = 15 seconds

Now, plug in the values:

\[ \text{Distance} = 12 , \text{m/s} \times 15 , \text{s} = 180 , \text{meters} \]

Therefore, the snowboarder traveled 180 meters.
