6. In 2009, Usain Bolt broke his own world record for the 100 meter race, running it in just 9.58 seconds. Find how fast this is in miles per hour. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. (Important, you are looking at his overall speed for the full 100 meters, which is not the same as his top speed during the sprint 7. When I wrote this problem on Monday, the price of gasoline in Vancouver, B.C. (Canada) was 1.53 Canadian dollars per Liter. Convert this price to US Dollars per gallon. (Round to the nearest tenth of a cent per gallon) Important: Use that 1 Canadian dollar is worth 0.75 US Dollars (that's what it was on Monday when I wrote this problem.). Feel free to look up any other conversions you need
