Question

A mouse can travel 1.5 miles a day. write an equation showing how far it travles

Answer 1

Let t = the number of days the mouse travels
Let D = the distance that the mouse traveled
The mouse travels at a rate of 1.5 miles per day, so R = 1.5 mi/day

The equation is:
Distance (D) = Rate (R) x Time (t)

SO:
Distance (D) = 1.5 mi./day X Time (t)
