The function y=60/x relates y, the time in hours that it takes micheal to travel to his grandparents house,to x , his average speed in miles per hour what does the number 60 the

Respuesta :

Remember the formula for time is distance/speed

So 60 would be the distance, or 60m.

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 :

[tex]Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{Distance}{x}[/tex]  -- A

Given function: [tex]y = \frac{60}{x}[/tex] --B

On comparing A and B

Distance = 60 miles

So, 60 represents the distance .
