Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Billy left home at 9 a.m. And rode his bicycle to the park at an average speed of 10 miles per hour here and got the park at 9:30 a.m.

Now, to find the distance from park to Billy,s home.

Time it took Billy to rode his bicycle from park to home is from 9.30 a.m to 9.30 p.m.

So, the time = (9.30 - 9.00) = 30 minutes

[tex]=\frac{30}{60}[/tex]  [tex]=0.5\ hour.[/tex]

Speed = 10 miles per hour.

Now, to get the distance from park to Billy's home we put formula:

[tex]Distance=Speed\times Time.[/tex]

[tex]Distance=10\times 0.5[/tex]

[tex]Distance=5\ miles.[/tex]
