Look back at th e diagram of th e m onorail ro u te on page 79. In th e Apply W hat
You’ve Learned in Lesson 2-3, you found th e average speed of th e m onorail
betw een th e parking garage an d Term inal A an d th e average speed of the
m onorail b etw een Term inal A an d Term inal B. Select all of th e following th at
are true. Explain your reasoning.
A. To convert th e m o n o rail’s average speed from feet p er second to m iles p e r hour,
m ultiply th e speed in feet p e r second by 5^ ift • 3 q 0 qs.
B. Between the parking garage a n d Term inal A, th e m o n o rail’s average speed is
greater th a n 25 m i/h.

C. Between Term inal A an d Terminal B, th e m o n o rail’s average speed is greater th a n
25 m i/h.
D. Between Terminal A and Terminal B, the m onorail’s average speed is 8.1 m i/h greater
th a n its average speed betw e en th e parking garage an d Term inal A.
E. If the m onorail m oved at its average sp ee d betw een Term inal A an d Term inal B for
15 m inutes, it w ould travel ab o u t 7.2 miles.
F. If the m onorail m oved at its average sp ee d betw een Terminal A an d Term inal B, it
