Jonathan runs a marathon 26.2 miles in four hours determine how many miles he runs per hour if the proportional relationship is represented by 4Y equals 26.2 X

1 answer

To determine how many miles Jonathan runs per hour, we need to solve the equation 4Y = 26.2X for Y (miles per hour).

Divide both sides of the equation by 4 to isolate Y:

4Y/4 = (26.2X)/4
Y = 26.2X/4

Therefore, Jonathan runs (26.2/4)X miles per hour.
