Answer:

The estimate is 186.5 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the estimate of the time the racing car will take to travel 10 miles, we have to first find the ratio of the original distance to the requested distance.

The number of seconds in an hour is [tex]60 \cdot 60[/tex] seconds, which equals to 3600 seconds.

[tex]\frac{193}{10} = \frac{3600}{x}[/tex]

[tex]19.3 = \frac{3600}{x}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{3600}{19.3}[/tex]

[tex]x \approx 186.5[/tex]

Hence, the estimate is 186.5 seconds.

Hope this helped!
