Answer:

The time is less than or equal to 1.5 hours

Explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

Let

x -----> the time in hours

The inequality that represent this situation is equal to


(105)/(x)\leq 70

Solve for x

Multiply by x both sides


105 \leq 70x

Divide by 70 both sides


105/70 \leq x

Rewrite the inequality


x \geq 105/70


x \geq 1.5\ hours

therefore

The time is less than or equal to 1.5 hours
