Question

a lizard runs at the constant speed of 9 miles per hour, how many miles does the lizard travel in \\(\frac{1}{3}\\) hour? complete the table below, \\(\

$$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \\hline \\text{time in hours} & \\text{distance in miles} \\\\ \\hline 1 & 9 \\\\ \\hline \\frac{1}{3} & \\square \\\\ \\hline \\end{array}$$

\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall distance formula

Distance = Speed × Time

Step2: Substitute given values

Speed = 9 miles/hour, Time = $\frac{1}{3}$ hour
$\text{Distance} = 9 \times \frac{1}{3}$

Step3: Calculate the product

$9 \times \frac{1}{3} = 3$

Answer:

3

Completed table:

Time in hours	Distance in miles
$\frac{1}{3}$	3
