Answer 1

Answer:

2.70 hours to travel 180 mi.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance traveled (d) varies directly as the time (t) of travel, by the following formula:

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

In which s is the velocity.

It takes 63 min to travel 70 mi.

So i am going to find the velocity in miles per minute

$s = \frac{70}{63} = 1.11$

how many hours would it take to travel 180 mi?

I am first going to find the time in minutes, then divide by 60 to pass to hours.

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

$st = d$

$t = \frac{d}{s}$

$t = \frac{180}{1.11}$

$t = 162.16$

It takes 162.16 minutes = 162.16/60 = 2.70 hours to travel 180 mi.
