Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a simple motion problem. Believe me, they get much harder! The distance formula is
d = rt
We want to know, basically, how long it will take this train traveling 56 mph to go 450 miles. We have the r, rate, and the d, distance:
450 = 56t so
t = 8.0
That means it will take 8 hours for the train to travel that far. If it leaves at 7 am, 8 hours after that will put it in the next town at approximately 3pm.
