Andrews [41]

Answer:

60 represents the distance

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : y is the time in hours that it takes Micheal to travel to his grandparents house,

            x is his average speed in miles per hour.

To Find: What does the number 60 represents

Solution :

Time= y

x = speed

So, To find distance we will use formula :

Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

y = \frac{Distance}{x}  -- A

Given function: y = \frac{60}{x} --B

On comparing A and B

Distance = 60 miles

So, 60 represents the distance .
