Question

The distance an object travels is determined by how fast it goes and for how long it moves.If an object speed remains constant,the formula is d=r•t, where d is the distance,r is the speed and t is the time. If you drive at 50 miles per hour for 5 hours,how far will you have traveled?
A.200 miles
B.10miles
C.250miles
D.300miles

Answer 1

Answer:

250 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Your formula is d=r(t)

d=distance r=speed t=time

In this equation it is asking you how far will you travel if your speed is 50 miles per hour, and the time is 5 hours.

So, using the equation above insert the known numbers and it should look like this: d=50(5)           ( distance is unknown / speed is 50 / time is 5  )  

Now you can find the distance. All you do is multiply 50 times 5 which equals 250.  

So the correct answer is C. 250 miles
