Question

It is 240 miles from Boston to New York.

Answer 1

It takes you 4.8 hours to reach New York

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

• It is 240 miles from Boston to New York
• You drive at a speed of 50 mph

We need to find how long would it take you to reach New York

Distance (d) = speed (v) × time (t)

∵ The distance between Boston and New York is 240 miles

∴ d = 240

∵ You drive at a speed 50 miles per hour

∴ v = 50

- Substitute these values in the rule of the distance above

∴ 240 = 50 × t

- Divide both sides by 50

∴ 4.8 = t

∴ The lime of the trip is 4.8 hours

It takes you 4.8 hours to reach New York
