D) Burr's belief that Hamilton had slandered him.
Explanation:
The Burr-Hamilton duel is one of the most famous personal conflicts in American history. It was a gunfight that grew out of the long-standing personal animosity that developed between the two men over several years. Tension increased with Hamilton's journalistic defamation of Burr's character during the 1804 New York gubernatorial race in which Burr was a candidate.
The duel was fought in Weehawken, New Jersey, between Vice President Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton, the former Secretary of the Treasury. It occurred on July 11, 1804, and was the culmination of a long and bitter rivalry between the two men. Vice President Burr shot Hamilton, while Hamilton's shot broke a branch of a tree directly over Burr's head. Hamilton died the next day.

D=rt is the base formula for this.
distance=rate×time
The two known variables are the distance (10 miles) and the rate (55 or 60mph). There are two equations which can be formulated and solved for comparison.
10=55x 10=60x
10/55=x 10/60=x
.187=x .167=x
The last step is to convert the hours to minutes and minute remainders to seconds.
.187×60minutes=10.07 .167×60minutes=11.22
1 minute, 9 seconds
