Answer:
Dist = 45 m/h * x h
Step-by-step explanation:
We know a speed is a measure of distance over time: speed = dist / time
In this case, we are looking for a distance expressed in terms of time.
So, we only need to modify the formula a bit: dist = speed * time
We don't know the time (which will be a variable), but we know their speed. So, the formula becomes:
Dist = 45 m/h * x h
Enter the number of hours in the formula and that will give you an approximation of the distance traveled within that time (approximation since our result will be rely on an average).
Answer:
2 : 7
Step-by-step explanation:
6 : 21 (6 for 6 days and 21 days in 3 weeks)
2 : 7 (Simplify by dividing by 3)
Speed is the magnitude in a velocity. It is a scalar quantity so it does not have direction unlike velocity which is a vector quantity. Speed and velocity refers to the distance traveled by a moving object per unit of time. We calculate speed as follows:
Speed = distance / time = 84 miles / 2 hours
Speed = 42 miles per hour
