length of channel = 106965.3333 feet = 20.25859 miles

Explanation:
We are given that:
Petar's average speed was 265 feet per minute
Therefore, before starting, we will need to convert the given time into minutes.
He swam the channel in:
6 hours = 6*60 = 360 minutes
57 minutes = 57 minutes
50 seconds = 50/60 = 5/6 minutes = 0.83334 minutes
Therefore:
Time = 360+57+5/6 = 417.83334 minutes

Now, the formula the relates distance, time and speed is:
speed = distance / time
We have the speed and time given. Therefore, we will just substitute to get the distance as follows:
256 = distance / 417.83334
distance = 106965.3333 feet = 20.25859 miles

Hope this helps :)

We know that Petar's average speed was 265 feet per minute.
We need to convert the given the time into minutes.
6 hours = 360 minutes
57 minutes = 57 minutes
50 seconds = 50/60 = 5/6 minutes = 0.83334 minutes
So the total time is: 360 + 57 + 5/6 = 417.83334 minutes
So the formula is:
speed = distance / time
Knowing the speed and time, will just substitute to get the distance:
256 = distance / 417.83334
distance = 106965.3333 feet = 20.25859 miles

median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population or probablity distribution from the lower half.

step-by-step explanation:

say you have 3,8,7,3,1,9,8 order them from lowest to highest

if orderd it would be 1,3,3,7,8,8,9 now you take away from the lowest and the highest until you end up in the middle.

so you would remove the 1 and 9 leaving you with 5 digits remaining

when you've reached the middle that would be your answer so in this case the answer is 7

if there were two numbers left say 7 and 5 you'd and them together so 12 then divide by 2 witch would equal 6 so the answer would be 6

good luck on that project hoped i you at all
