    A

    rate=500/1.25=4 miles/hour

  3. Jhous says:

    when you divide the distance by time, you get the rate. 5 miles, divided by 1.25
    hours = 4 miles per hour.

  4. anshak says:

    definitely A.

  5. YourNameHere says:

    It’s A: if he does 5 miles in 5/4 hours, then the speed is v=x/t=5/1.25=4.
