Question

Brian is riding his bike. He biked a distance of 14 miles at a rate of 14 miles per hour. Rearrange the distance formula, d = rt, to solve for Brian's time in minutes

Answer 1

Answer:

60 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is:

D = RT

Where

D is distance (in miles)

R is rate (in miles per hour)

T is time (in minutes)

Given,

D = 14 miles

R = 14 miles per hour

We want to find T, so we have:

$D=RT\\T=\frac{D}{R}\\T=\frac{14}{14}\\T=1$

So the time is 1 hour

We want in minutes, and we know 60 minutes is 1 hour, so the time (in minutes) is 60 minutes

Answer 2

The required rearranged equation is $t=\frac{d}{r}$

SOLUTION:

Given, Brian is riding his bike.  

He biked a distance of 14 miles at a rate of 14 miles per hour.  

We have to rearrange the distance formula, d = rt, to solve for Brian's time in minutes.

Now, we have to calculate time so, the equation will be rearranged as $t=\frac{d}{r}$

Here, d is distance = 14 miles and r is rate of speed = 14 miles per hour

Then, $\text { time } \mathrm{t}=\frac{14 \text { miles }}{14 \text { miles per hour }}=\frac{14}{14}=1 \text { hour }$

The required equation is $t=\frac{d}{r}$
