**Unit 2: Problem-Solving with Distance and Time****Problem Statement:**Cole biked at 5 mph for $1 \frac{1}{2}$ hours. Which of the following choices show how far he biked?- A) 5.5 miles- B) 6.5 miles- C) 7.5 miles- D) 10 miles**Explanation:**To determine how far Cole biked, we need to use the formula for distance, which is:\[ \text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time} \]Here, the speed is 5 mph, and the time is $1 \frac{1}{2}$ hours, which can be converted to 1.5 hours. Now, we multiply the speed by the time:\[ \text{Distance} = 5 \, \text{mph} \times 1.5 \, \text{hours} = 7.5 \, \text{miles} \]Therefore, the correct answer is:C) 7.5 miles
