Alicia drove at a constant speed and traveled 182.4 miles in 3 hours. How many miles
would Alicia travel in 11 hours at the same speed?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex] V = \frac{182.4 mi}{3 hr}= 60.8 \frac{mi}{hr}[/tex]

And then we can find the distance travelled in 11 hours with this formula:

[tex] D = Vt[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] D = 60.8 \frac{mi}{hr} *11 hr =668.8 mi[/tex]

So then after 11 hours she will travel 668.8 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case w eknow that Alicia drove at a constant speed 182.4 mi in 3 hours. We can find the speed with this formula:

[tex] V= \frac{D}{t}[/tex]

Where V is the velocity, D the distance and t the time if we replace we got:

[tex] V = \frac{182.4 mi}{3 hr}= 60.8 \frac{mi}{hr}[/tex]

And then we can find the distance travelled in 11 hours with this formula:

[tex] D = Vt[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] D = 60.8 \frac{mi}{hr} *11 hr =668.8 mi[/tex]

So then after 11 hours she will travel 668.8 mi
