Answer:
Option A - The distance Train A traveled in 1 h is equal to the distance Train B traveled in 1 h.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The distance Train A traveled is modeled by the function
where d represents distance in miles and t represents time in hours.
To find : How does the distance Train A traveled in 1 hour compare to the distance Train B traveled in 1 hour?
Solution :
Distance traveled by Train A in 1 hour is
Distance traveled by Train B in 1 hour is
or for B, we have 324 miles in 4 hours. If that is at a constant speed, it travels 324/4 = 81 miles in one hour
Therefore, The distance Train A traveled in 1 h is equal to the distance Train B traveled in 1 h.
Hence, Option A is correct.
