Dakota’s parents will leave Norfolk, VA at 7:30 a.m. on Thursday in their personal vehicle. The average speed the vehicle will travel is 70 miles per hour.

3. Determine how long it will take the vehicle to arrive in New York City. Represent the distance traveled every hour in a table of values.

Respuesta :

Distance = Speed * Time

Time . . . . Distance
8:30 am . . . . 70 mi
9:30 am . . . . 140 mi
10:30 am . . . 210 mi
11:30 am . . . 280 mi
11:42 am . . . 294 mi
12:30 pm . . . 350 mi
12:42 pm . . . 364 mi

If the distance from Norfolk to New York is 364 miles, it will take 5 hours 12 minutes for the vehicle with an average speed of 70 mph to arrive in New York.

If a straight-line route of 294 miles is followed, it will take 3 hours 12 minutes.

_____
My map app shows the driving distance to be about 364 miles, and the straight-line distance to be about 294 miles. Both Norfolk and New York are big places, so the distance will vary depending on precise start and end points. Maintaining an average speed of 70 mph could be difficult either in the air or on the ground.
