<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>= 2 hours </em>

<h3>Solution;</h3>

Speed is the distance covered by a moving body per unit time.

Thus, speed = distance/time

Therefore; time will be given by distance divided by time

Hence; time =Distance/time

distance = 90 miles

speed = 45 miles/hour

Time = 90 miles/45 miles/hour

= 2 hours

Therefore, a time of two hours is taken by the car to travel 90 miles when moving at a speed of 45 miles/hour.
