Answer:

80miles/hr

0.9hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance traveled  = 60miles

Time taken = 0.75hrs

Unknown:

Speed of the car = ?

Time it will take to cover 72miles  = ?

Solution:

Speed is the distance divided by time;

   Speed  = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

  Insert the parameters and solve;

     Speed  = [tex]\frac{60}{0.75}[/tex]  = 80miles/hr

Time taken;

   Time  = [tex]\frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{72}{80}[/tex]   = 0.9hr
