Answer:
[tex]36\frac{3}{4} miles[/tex] and [tex]45 miles[/tex] respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a few ways to solve this
- First we find the speed of the car, which is the distance divided by time [tex]speed=\frac{distance}{time}[/tex] now distance is [tex]1\frac{3}{4} =\frac{7}{4} miles[/tex] and the time is [tex]2\frac{1}{3} =\frac{7}{3} minutes[/tex]
- Then [tex]speed=\frac{7}{4} /\frac{7}{3}=\frac{7}{4} *\frac{3}{7}=\frac{3}{4} miles/minute[/tex]
- Using this speed, we just find the distance using different time values
- rewriting the formula so the distance is the subject gives [tex]distance=speed*time[/tex]
- So for time as 49 minutes we have [tex]distance=(\frac{3}{4}miles/minute)*(49minutes)=36\frac{3}{4} miles[/tex]
- Then for time as 1 hour which is 60 minutes we have [tex]distance=(\frac{3}{4}miles/minute)*(60minutes)=45miles[/tex]
