Answer:

225

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total time is 5.5 hours. Since he stopped for an hour, we subtract 1.

5.5 - 1 = 4.5

So, there was 4.5 hours of driving. Then, we multiply this by 50, the average rate.

50 * 4.5 = 225

So, he drove 225 miles from Austin to Boxville.

I hope this helps :) if so, brainliest would help me out a lot <3

Answer:

225 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Ivan drove from 6:15 p.m. to 11:45 p.m., which is a total of 5.5 hours.

However, he stopped for dinner for 1 hour, so the total driving time is 5.5 - 1 = 4.5 hours.

If he averaged 50 miles per hour, the total distance can be found by multiplying the speed by the time:

[tex] \textsf{Total distance} = \textsf{Speed} \times \textsf{Time} [/tex]

[tex] \textsf{Total distance} = 50 \, \textsf{miles/hour} \times 4.5 \, \textsf{hours} [/tex]

[tex] \textsf{Total distance} = 225 \, \textsf{miles} [/tex]

Therefore, Boxville is 225 miles from Austin.
