The fastest moving insect is the large tropical cockroach. it scurries at speeds of up to 2.3 feet per second. now write an equation that represents how many miles a roach can travel in 1.5 hours?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(2.3)(ft/sec)(1 mile/5280 ft)(1.5*3600 sec/1.5 hr)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "= [(2.3*1*1.5*3600)/(1*5280)](miles/1.5 hr)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "= (12420/5280)(miles/1.5 hr.)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "= 2.352... miles/1.5 hr.
