Answer:
12.25 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write a proportion to solve. Miles over time in minutes
1 hour = 60 minutes
1 hours 10 minutes = 60+10 = 70 minutes
3.5 miles x miles
--------------- = --------------
20 minutes 70 minutes
Using cross products
3.5 *70 = 20x
245 = 20x
Divide each side by 20
245/20 = 20x/20
12.25 =x
Jimmy can go 12.25 miles
