Question

Using the formula d = rt, calculate the distance a car would travel at 80 mph for 2.5 hours.

Answer 1

Using the formula,

$d= v \times t$

Here, d is distance, v is the velocity and t is time.

Given, $v = 80 \ mile /hour$ and $t = 2.5 \ hour$.

Substituting these values in above formula, we get

$d = 80 \ mile /hour \times 2.5 \ hour = 200 \ miles$

Thus, the distance traveled by the car is 200 miles
