distance = rates x time or D=rt

T = D/R

T = 1 mph/ 4 miles

T= 0.25 hour or 15 minutes

To get how many minutes multiply:
0.25 x 60 minutes = 15 minutes

You've only got 1 mile to walk and you're going to walk at the rate of 4 miles in 1 hour.

Simply devide 1mile by 4 miles per hour...
1/4=.25 hours
There are 60 minutes in an hour so...
60 minutes *.25=15 minutes

if you walk one mile and you walk at a rate of 4 miles per hour then you can use this formula distance = rate x time

1 mile = 4 miles per hour x time

1 mile / 4 miles per hour = time

1 / 4 hour = time

to find the time in minutes take 60 ( the number of minutes in an hour and multiply it bye 1/4 )

1/4 x 60 = 60/4 = 15

It would take you 15 minutes

Motel 6 is good, they almost always take dogs, sometimes with a small extra fee, and they're all over the place. Call ahead if you can, even in early afternoon, to make sure there'll be a 'dog room' available. If you have a choice, get a room at the end of the building so there will be less traffic past your door to set him barking. Most hotels which allow dogs don't want the dog left alone in the room, and they ask you to pick up after the dog on their property. Motels have the advantage, for your dog, that you can usually pull up close to your room, so with luck he won't have to see any strange people. Meantime, does the dog have his own bed? If he does and you take it with you, it will help him feel more at home in hotels. Same if he's used to a crate or X-pen. I always leave the dog in the car until I have the blanket, food and water bowls set out, and I feed the dog pretty soon after we're in the room. You'll be in warm weather, more or less, along 10, so stop often and give the dog a little walk. If he's tired, he'll be quieter in the room at night. If he's used to a muzzle, use it by all means. Ask your vet about sedatives. You might just want to give him one when it's close to hotel time. Finally, since the barking is the chief problem--everything else is manageable as is--have you consulted a dog trainer or behaviourist about the barking? You've got a month or so to work on it. And don't stress! It won't help. Be calm and in control and your dog will pick up on that.

15 minutes, unless you stop to chat or shop on the way. If you walk at a rate of 4 miles per hour and your only going 1 mile, you would simply divide the distance by the rate.

4 miles will take you 1 hour
1 mile will take you 1/4 of an hour or 15 minutes

15 minutes...

there are 60 minuts in one hour
you walk 4 miles in those 60 minutes
work is one mile away, so you take 1/4 of 60
this gives you 15 minutes

1/4 of an hour or 15 minutes

2007-05-24 03:51:35 · answer #8 · answered by bruinfan 7 · 0 0

a quarter of an hour, obviously. (1mile devided by 4 miles per hour= 1/4 of an hour)

A quarter of an hour!

(1/4)*(60minutes)

= 15minutes or .25 hours.
