Question

A train traveled 63.75 miles at a rate of 85 miles per hour. Which equation can be used to find h, the number of hours it took the train to travel this distance? 85 - h = 63.75 63.75 = 85h 63.75 + h = 85 85 = 63.75h

Answer 1

Answer:  63.75 = 85h

Solving gives 0.75 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

we now that speed = distance / time

therefore time will be Distance / speed

Given that distance = 63.75miles

Speed= 6=85miles per hour

Time(h) = 63.75miles/ 85.---- equation 1

But from the options given, the equation that can also  be used to find number of hours is

63.75 = 85h

such that making h subject of formula  still give us

h= 63.75/85  as in equation 1 above

solving gives that Time ( h) = 0.75 hours .
