Joey is riding a bicycle. It takes him 28 minutes to go 8 miles.
\n" ); document.write( " If he continues traveling at the same rate, how long will it take him to go 15 miles?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Distance varies directly with time, use a ratio equation to do this
\n" ); document.write( "let t = time to go 15 mi
\n" ); document.write( "\"t%2F28\" = \"15%2F8\"
\n" ); document.write( "Cross multiply
\n" ); document.write( "8t = 28 * 15
\n" ); document.write( "8t = 420
\n" ); document.write( "t = 420/8
\n" ); document.write( "t = 52.5 min to go 15 mi
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
