Question

Andrew drove 55 mph on his trip. Which of the following equations best represents the distance he drove if x stands for the number of hours?

Answer 1

55*x
X= The hours 
I hope this helps!!

Answer 2

Answer

Using speed formula:

$\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$

Let y represents the distance in miles and x represents the time in hours.

As per the given statement:

Andrew drove 55 mph on his trip.

Using formula;

we have;

$55 = \frac{y}{x}$

Multiply both sides by x we have;

$y = 55x$

Therefore, the equation best represents the distance he drove is $y = 55x$
