Respuesta :

We know that

The toy robot moves a total distance of 264 centimeters in 11 seconds.

To know the time in seconds for 480 centimeters, we can form the following proportion.

[tex]\frac{264\operatorname{cm}}{11\sec}=\frac{408\operatorname{cm}}{t}[/tex]

We solve the expression for t.

[tex]t=\frac{408\cdot11}{264}\sec =\frac{4,488}{264}\sec =17\sec [/tex]

Therefore, the toy robot moves 408 centimeters in 17 seconds. The right choice is the second one.
