Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the value of DK we use proportionality:
AK/EK=BK/KD
thus plugging the values we get:
14/17=7/KD
getting the reciprocal of getting both sides we have:
17/14=KD/7
thus
KD=17/14×7
KD=8.5
thus
Lets assume that they are driving at an average of 70mph, and getting gas takes 10 minutes, and stopping to eat takes 30.
t=d/s
t=600/70
t=8.57
Stopping to eat twice is 30 x 2 = 60 (another hour)
and Gas is 10 x 3 = 30 minutes (0.5 hours)
Total time is,
8.57+1+0.5 =10.07
So the trip will take approx 10.7 hours total.
(This is using my assumptions, from my experience!)
