Find the rate as a ratio of distance to time. Round to the nearest hundredth where appropriate.
\( 26.4 \mathrm{~m}, 2.4 \mathrm{sec} \)
\( 0.09 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \)
\( 8.6 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \)
\( 11 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \)
\( 63.36 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \)

Answer

\( \text{Rate} \approx 11\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s} \)

Steps

Step 1 ：\( \text{Rate} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \)

Step 2 ：\( \text{Rate} = \frac{26.4\mathrm{~m}}{2.4\mathrm{~sec}} \)

Step 3 ：\( \text{Rate} \approx 11\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s} \)
