Answer:

It takes 85 seconds to go 12.75 miles

Explanation:

We are given

An airplane is flying from New York City to Los Angeles

the distance it travels in Miles D is related to the time in seconds T by the equation


d=0.15T

we are given to find time when distance is 12.75 miles

so, we can set d=12.75

and then we can solve for T


12.75=0.15T

We can divide both sides by 0.15


T=(12.75)/(0.15)


T=85

So,

It takes 85 seconds to go 12.75 miles
