Question

Clare travels at a constant speed, as shown on the double number line

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 36 miles

2. 108 miles

3. 234 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the Distance in miles, time and calculated speed as follows;

Distance (miles)                  Elapsed time (hours)              Speed (miles/hour)

       0                                        0                                          0

       72                                      2                                          36

       144                                     4                                          36

       216                                     6                                          36

Distance = Speed (miles/hour) × Elapsed Time (hour)

Therefore, in

1. 1 hour, she travels

1 × 36  = 36 miles

2. 3 hours she travels

3 hours × 36 miles/hour = 108 miles

3. 6.5 hours she travels

6.5 hours × 36 miles/hour = 234 miles.
