An airplane is flying from New York City to Los Angeles. The distance it travels in miles d, is related to the time in seconds,
34kurt

Answer:

A. 0.15

B. 0.45

C. 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Equation to represent the relation between distance, d in miles and time t in seconds:

d=0.15t

<em>A. </em>

To find: The speed of airplane in miles per second.

Formula for speed is given as:

Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}

Here, we will have to find the value of \frac{d}{t}.

Dividing the given equation by t, we get:

\dfrac{d}{t}=0.15

d is in miles and t is in seconds.

Therefore, the answer is <em>0.15</em>.

<em>B.</em>

Distance traveled in 30 seconds.

Given that: t = 30 seconds

To find: d = ? in miles

d = 0.15\times 3 = 0.45

<em>C.</em>

The time taken to travel a distance of 12.75 miles.

Given that : d =12.75\ miles

To find: t = ? seconds

12.75 = 0.15t\\\Rightarrow t = \dfrac{12.75}{0.15}\\\Rightarrow \bold{t = 85}
