Respuesta :
average speed for car a = 1280 / 16 = 80 mph
Car b travels at 80 - 0.5 = 79.5 mph.
Distance car b will travel in same time = 16*79.5 = 1272 miles.
Car b travels at 80 - 0.5 = 79.5 mph.
Distance car b will travel in same time = 16*79.5 = 1272 miles.
Answer:
Car B drives in 16 hours 1272 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Car A drives 1280 miles in 16 hours.
Speed = [tex]\frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]
The speed rate of car A = [tex]\frac{1280}{16}[/tex] = 80 miles per hour
Car A travels 0.5 miles per hour faster than car B.
∴ Speed of car B = 80 - 0.5 = 79.5 miles per hour
If car A drives 1280 miles in 16 hours.
∴ car B drives in 16 hours = 79.5 × 16 = 1272 miles
Car B drives in 16 hours 1272 miles.
