oh my what. it's math.

e) How far does Jin travel in 3.5h?

0 inches because he's trapped in pregap's pants

O_o Woah. Epic. xD;;

What is this I don't how where when

brb, riding bike to Roka's school to banhammer textbook.

Man, this thread stumped Jin and Pregap? Its like magic or something

e) 14.4 km
f) 4.7 h

... I think.
xD

JK I just wanted to use this!

Ah, the classic DRT formula. Distance = Rate x Time or something. One of my favorites in math.

A) The equation would be D = R x T, which applied would be D = 4 x T

I'll skip B to D because I hate that stuff in Math.

E) Oh lordy, you've been given your T! So now that the time is given, you're equation looks like
D = 4m/s (miles per second) x 3.5 hours.
Simple multiplication. But the question lists seconds. So you gotta do a bit of extra.
3.5 hours is basically 3 hours and 30 minutes. Multiply 60 minutes by 3 (180 minutes) and add 30 to get 240 minutes. Then multiply 60 seconds to that, as 60 seconds = 1 minute. You get...
D = 4m/s x 14400
The guy traveled 57,600 meters (holy hell...).

F) This time, it's the opposite. The distance of 17km is given. So your equation looks like
17km = 4m/s x T
But the rate is measured by meter, so covert 17km to meter. You get...
17000m = 4m/s x T.
In a case like this, divide 17000 from the 4. The guy traveled for 4250 seconds.

Just throwing this out there, I TOTALLY was just winging this. XD

^ o_____o
I didn't understand a single thing you wrote 8D
But man you're smart o____O *SHOT*

And..for jin to travel 57,600 meters...WOW

Amazing math. /SHOT

O___O Woah Jin travelled 57,600 meters to Roka's school just to banhammer textbook? That's.. *calculating in progress*... 57.6 kilometers.

me too!

but he travels...
tsk, AMAZING JIN!!!! d(>O<)b

I don't know what to say but... GOOD LUCK JIN! (_ _)

PS : what's the point of this topic anyway?

oh my what. it's math.

I bet after that ride, Jin has buns and thighs of steel!

LOL I hate that kind of math when -random person is biking how long does it take blablablabla-

But ... *can't stop imagining Jin randomly biking*

It's actually pretty simple. You're already given a set amount of applications. When brought to a D=R*T formula, you just need to plug in what they give you.

The problem with that question is that they were somewhat being specific, making you think a little more (it did that for me). Normally, the rate or speed one would be going would come out as miles per hour, or mph. However, in a case like this they were asking for distance in meters and time in seconds, having you do a little more calculation than you'd want to.

When faced with a DRT formula, it is normal that they already give you two measurements. Simply plug them in and apply the math. Say for example that your distance and time are already given, so you'd have to find the speed, or rate. Your equation would then look like

D = x * T, x being what you have to find, and D and T already being given.

The equation in word form means "Distance is equal to Rate/Speed times Time." According to this, you find the Distance by measuring the units of Speed by the units of Time. So if you needed to find something, like Rate, you'd have to do something different.

Rate is ALWAYS something over something, like meters over seconds, or miles per hour. It would always look like m/s or mph (which is essentially the same thing but in letter form). But it actually would look like D/T, Distance over Time. Say you're given 40 miles in 2 hours. 40/2 = 20, so you've been driving at 20mph (slowpoke...).

To find Time is the same way. You take the Distance and divide that by the speed given. Say you're driving for 40 miles at a speed of 20 miles per hour. You divide 20 from the 40, and you get 2 hours.

D = R * T
R = D/T
T = D/R

And there, you have DIRT.

I don't get Math in Dutch, so I will never get it in English xD
*hates math, loves languages*

Yeah, after I posted that, I told myself, "Yeah, no one's gonna read all that..."

You don't question it. You accept it, embrace it, and make love to it.
